Business Leader | 20 startups set to take part in the 2022 Norrsken Impact Accelerator

Business Leader | 20 startups set to take part in the 2022 Norrsken Impact Accelerator

‍

‍

Today, Norrsken has announced the twenty companies that will participate in its 2022 Norrsken Impact Accelerator, an accelerator programme designed to find the world’s most promising early-stage impact startups and help them scale.

All of the participating companies were selected via an open application process, and have been evaluated against the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals, and ranked based on the magnitude and depth of their potential impact. Unintended and potentially harmful side-effects of success have also been taken into consideration. Only companies that can successfully demonstrate that impact is an integral part of their business model have been admitted for entry into the programme.

The 2022 batch was selected by an expert team that includes Norrsken Foundation CEO Erik Engellau Nilsson, Capital T Founding Partner Janneke Niessen, Lazada Co-founder Christopher Brinkeborn Beselin, Kry Co-founder Fredrik Jung-Abbou, Brilliant Minds Co-founder Ash Pournouri and Walerud Ventures Founder Jane Walerud. The Norrsken Impact Accelerator is also supported by the Norrsken VC and Africa investment teams.

Beyond acceptance to the programme itself, including an eight-week growth sprint at Norrsken House in Stockholm and mentorship from a roster of over 110 entrepreneurs, investors and unicorn founders, with all startups set to receive $125,000 upfront pre-seed or seed investment from the Norrsken Foundation.

“This is a big day for Norrsken. Our Accelerator brings together over one hundred extraordinary individuals who channel their knowledge, experience and network to pave the way for early-stage, up-and-coming impact tech startups. We only want to work with companies that are solving real, urgent and important problems – problems that matter. We believe that all of the companies in our 2022 cohort are doing exactly this, and we’re so excited to be part of their growth journeys from here!” said Funda Sezgi, Norrsken Impact Accelerator Managing Director and Co-founder.
