GBSB Global Business School’s G-Accelerator Impact Call 2026 began on June 1 with an Idea Pitch Session that brought together emerging entrepreneurs, mentors, and innovation experts for an afternoon dedicated to impact-driven business creation.

The session marked the first major milestone of the 2026 edition of the G-Accelerator Impact Call, GBSB Global’s pre-acceleration program designed to support seed and pre-seed projects with the potential to generate social, economic, and environmental value.

A total of 15 projects were presented during the session, 10 from external entrepreneurs and 5 from the GBSB Global community. Altogether, the projects involved 26 beneficiaries — 7 women and 19 men — with total attendance reaching 40 participants, including mentors, trainers, project teams, and beneficiaries joining both onsite and online.

This year’s cohort reflects the international and cross-sector character of the G-Accelerator ecosystem. While most beneficiaries are Spanish, the group also includes participants from France, Tunisia, Egypt, Colombia, the United States, Macedonia, Malta, and other countries. The projects presented covered a wide range of industries, from artificial intelligence, healthcare innovation, sustainability, and circular economy to tourism, education, fintech, wellness, consumer products, and digital platforms.

Several projects stood out for their pitch quality, innovation potential, and social relevance. Among them was MunAI, an AI-powered care companion that checks in daily with older adults through WhatsApp, passively tracking six wellness signals — hydration, medication, mood, activity, sleep, and social contact — alongside cognitive health indicators, and relaying insights to families via a real-time dashboard. Care Again is a community-driven platform aimed at improving access to medical technology; Hygeia Biobalance combines personalized Mediterranean botany, systemic health, and regenerative innovation with full traceability; Jungle Roofs is a sustainability platform that manages the entire process of helping companies fund and implement green rooftop projects, from project selection through construction and impact measurement; and Agentsy.pro is an AI-driven solution that helps professionals transform their expertise into scalable business growth experiences.

The full schedule also showcased a broad spectrum of entrepreneurial ideas, including multilingual real-time communication tools, an AI-powered urban discovery platform that creates personalized itineraries complete with audio narratives and helps redistribute tourist flows beyond overcrowded hotspots, fashion technology, a natural functional beverage in shot format targeting sleep recovery for high-performing professionals, a social platform for tracking and discussing global finance and world events in real time, a travel social network for group trips, digital growth systems for SMEs, a wellness application for ambitious women, a craft soda brand, and a platform for vocation-oriented human potential development.

A strong focus on artificial intelligence emerged across several projects, not as a standalone trend but as a practical tool for solving real-world challenges. At the same time, the session demonstrated a notable balance between technological innovation and social impact, with many ventures addressing issues related to health, sustainability, inclusion, education, and human development.

The Idea Pitch session also reflected one of the core strengths of the G-Accelerator Impact Call: connecting entrepreneurial ambition with structured mentoring, international collaboration, and a clear impact framework. Throughout the program, participants will continue developing their business models, testing their markets, refining their value propositions, and preparing for the next stages of entrepreneurial growth.

With its combination of international diversity, technological creativity, and impact-oriented thinking, the opening session set a strong foundation for GAIC 2026 and reaffirmed GBSB Global’s commitment to supporting the next generation of entrepreneurs building ventures for a more sustainable and inclusive economy.
