The CirculaRise Accelerator supports growth stage social businesses to develop and scale inclusive circular solutions. Through our CirculaRise Accelerator Framework, we guide entrepreneurs in bridging the gap between economic viability, environmental responsibility and social impact and enable them to implement validated circular social business models.

The Problem

We are facing a complex environmental crisis, driven by unsustainable consumption patterns, resource depletion, and increasing waste production. The need for a fundamental shift in business practices has never been more urgent. Transitioning to a circular economy is critical to mitigating this crisis but for this transition to be truly effective and equitable, it must also be inclusive. Social businesses play a particularly pioneering role here as they focus their business activities on creating positive social and environmental impact alongside profit, and should be at the forefront of this transition.

Our Solution

The CirculaRise Accelerator aims to empower social businesses to innovate within the circular economy, measure and communicate their social and environmental impact, and secure the strategic partnerships needed to implement and scale their circular solutions.
