SocialTides

Every day, across Europe, people are creating viable and practical on-the-ground solutions to solve local challenges and create positive impact in their communities. SocialTides is a new programme, powered by INCO and supported by Google.org, with EN as an implementation partner, which over the course of two years aims to accelerate, train and fund a total of 60-100 social entrepreneurs and 240-300 aspiring social entrepreneurs across Europe – to provide support, strengthen their impact and help them scale.

The program includes two distinct yet recurring tracks, suitable for:

Aspiring social entrepreneurs

The Aspire track is a social entrepreneurship online acceleration program for aspiring social entrepreneurs, which includes a series of training modules and workshops led by experts experienced in business development, digital skills and impact measurement. Over the course of 8 weeks, participants will improve their business and digital skills and strengthen their impact-driven capabilities. The Aspire track will launch, and is open for aspiring social entrepreneurs, in 6 countries: France, Germany, Slovenia, Poland, Spain and Italy with a localized program for each country.
