Social impact is a major consideration for modern entrepreneurs, especially in an era defined by relentless progress.

Technological change is accelerating, to the point that seemingly insignificant trends can have a significant impact on businesses and lives. Innovation may well be a primary force behind these changes, but many of the effects are also social in nature, improving the quality of the environment and human life in different ways.

We invited inspiring startups to share with us how they are driving real positive social and environmental change and making a radical difference in a way that is full of purpose and heart.
