PITCHING SERIES FOR INCUBATORS AND ACCELERATORS
The Pitching Series organized by Better Incubation Project will begin on Thursday 30th June. In the first session, investors for impact will share insights on how they work with incubators and accelerators – and how this collaboration can be improved to better support impact driven businesses.
The six series until September 2022 will facilitate an informal conversation between a diverse range of investors for impact and business support organisations with regards to pipeline building. Furthermore, the sessions will reflect different perspectives and country/regional contexts existing in Europe.

different investment approaches applied by one or two EVPA members,
collaboration experience of social investors with incubators and accelerators
possibility to engage in discussion through an informal space, moderated by an EVPA team member.
