Accelerate your impact - incubators and accelerators

To create a future that works for people and planet, we need to work together. The innovation that’s needed if we’re to tackle society’s greatest problems means that the best ideas need to meet the right people that can support their journey into actualisation. Impact Hub Berlin incubator and accelerator programmes – focused on our impact ecosystems – match changemakers with the networks, resources and knowledge that can help them succeed. It ain’t easy! Taking part in an intensive learning experience over several months is challenging as well as hugely rewarding. If you have what it takes, apply to one of our upcoming incubator or accelerator programmes. Apply to a programme below.
