Applications are open for Triggers, the Casa do Impacto acceleration program, which supports teams with motivation and know-how for impact entrepreneurship focused on environmental sustainability. The application phase runs until January 7th.

Amid Web Summit, the largest technology conference globally, Casa do Impacto launched, on November 3rd, its latest acceleration program. Triggers Acceleration Program was designed to challenge anyone with environmental concerns and an entrepreneurial mindset.

Reconciling the social mission of Santa Casa da Misericórdia in Lisbon with the growing environmental emergency, Triggers will focus on finding solutions that combine climate justice and social justice. Our planet is out of balance due to the environmental crisis. In this program, we will bring together disruptive minds to find solutions based on sustainable business models that combine social and climate justice. With Triggers, we will leverage startups and projects with prizes that allow their initial growth.

Until discovering the big winner, the candidates will go through 5 phases: Ecosystem Biodiversity; Natural Selection; Environment Adaptation; Evolution of Species and Multiplication of the Strongest. So who will be the strongest?
