CIRCULAR IMPACT ACCELERATOR

An accelerator program to build circular economy social enterprises in South Australia

Circular Impact Accelerator

Collab4Good is excited to be partnering with Green Industries SA and StartSomeGood to deliver a third circular social enterprise design program for South Australians to accelerate the development of new ways to address circular economy challenges in South Australia.

The Circular Impact Accelerator is an intensive 6-week program which brings together an array of local and national expertise and content to create a powerful circular economy social enterprise design course for people who have an idea to pursue and need support to explore their concept further.

You will learn the fundamentals of circular economy and social enterprise business model design, whilst also gaining access to new networks, potential customers/collaborators and investment to bring your venture to life. The Program includes in-person workshops with guest speakers, weekly coaching calls with experienced social entrepreneurs, exclusive access to curated online content including interviews with successful circular social enterprise founders, connections to mentors and the opportunity to pitch for customers and seed funding at our popular live pitch night.

Participation in the Circular Impact Accelerator is FREE thanks to the generous support of Green Industries SA.

Applications close 8pm Tuesday 16th April

Before applying please ensure you have read the Program Information Pack which has all the program details, eligibility and program schedule including the in-person workshops (x3) which are mandatory for at least one team member to attend, as well as some tips to help your application.

An information session for those interested in applying for the 2024 program was held online on Tuesday 26th March 2024 to go through the Information Pack - the recording of the information session is available to view via the link below.
