Today, our G-Accelerator Impact Call 2024 beneficiaries concluded the first 'Ideation' block by presenting their innovative ideas at the highly anticipated Social Pitch event. This event marks a significant step in their entrepreneurial journey, highlighting their dedication to creating businesses with substantial social, economic, and environmental input aligned with G-Accelerator’s Triple Impact Model.
A special thank you goes to our partners, Richard Hazenberg and Claire Paterson-Young, from the University of Northampton's Institute for Social Innovation and Impact (ISII). The ISII is renowned for its research on evaluating and measuring the social impact of innovations and social enterprises worldwide, and is committed to advancing the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. Our collaboration with the ISII promotes educational innovation and social responsibility on an international scale, integrating social value, sustainable development, and public service reform.
Congratulations to all participants for their hard work and dedication. As we pause for a well-deserved summer break, we encourage everyone to recharge and prepare for the next phase of the training program, which will focus on Market Testing and Business Model Validation, delivered in collaboration with UVic University, cofounders of the Impact Call Training program.
