Entrepreneurs Without Borders

Empowering founders to create a sustainable future

We help early stage founders start and grow
sustainable businesses. We believe all business should be equal, socially responsible and aligned with the UN 17 Global Development Goals.

Entrepreneur2030™

The Entrepreneur2030™ framework is based on the idea that all entrepreneurship needs to be socially responsible and aligned with the UN 17 Global Development Goals (SDGs).

“Our purpose is to promote a model of sustainable entrepreneurship, where all business is socially responsible, equal and strives towards one or more of the UN 17 SDGs. We do this by working with entrepreneurs at an early stage, pre-incubation and before, to encourage and empower them to get on the right track from the start. Our Entrepreneur2030™ framework is based on the vision that no business gets started without a clear idea of which of the UN 17 SDGs it aims to help solve.”
