Welcome Mueblea in Colombia to our South America Accelerator
From establishing green roofs in Bangladesh to developing storybook apps for deaf children, ten inspirational social entrepreneurs join our Dela accelerator family.
Pioneers and change makers
In Swedish “Dela” means to share, which is exactly what this accelerator is all about. Sharing knowledge, perspectives and networks to support social entrepreneurs who are striving to make a positive impact on society and improve the lives of people around the world who need it the most. People like Ahsan Rony from Green Savers:
“I want to scale my initiative to a bigger extent so that it can create an impact for my country.” - Ahsan Rony
Green Savers creates environmental and social impact with rooftop gardens in Bangladesh. With about 500,000 feasible rooftops in Dhaka, Green Savers provide support in establishing and promoting different types of rooftop gardening in Dhaka city, to help city dwellers produce fresh food and fresh air at the same time as creating jobs.
But also social entrepreneurs like Melissa Malzkuhn, Founder & Director of Motion Light Lab, that use technology to create learning experiences for deaf children and all visual learners. It is a deaf-founded and led sign-centric space where creative literature intersects with digital technology supporting the development of literacy and storybook apps for deaf children.“I want to find sustainability to have strong, coherent programming initiatives that give us the backbone to be able to serve those in need, and leverage other groups, organizations, and teams of our platform." - Melissa Malzkuhn
