The development of entrepreneurship, technology and trade positively impacts the economic growth of local communities worldwide particularly in Africa, Asia, and Latin America (Hopkins, R.F., 2006, Political Economy of Foreign Aid). Social enterprises, even the smallest ones, enable improvements in quality of life by accumulating resources (capital, expertise and business relationships) and consequently eliminating extreme poverty.
That’s why we’re organizing UNSUNG HEROES ACCELERATION PROGRAMME 2.0 – the second edition of our global startup acceleration program for humanitarian-oriented founders to develop impoverished communities.
