The first accelerator focused on training companies to unlock their impact & sustainability potential 

Greece seems to be at a crossroads when it comes to one of its most promising market areas: startups and micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) .​

Despite the large number of the innovative ventures & accelerator programs in Greece, most are lacking SDG alignment, sustainability strategy and impact readiness​.

Main goals of this HIIN vertical are to educate & actively invest into innovative enterprises with positive impact footprint.

The pursuit of a greener and more socially equitable Greece

The HIIN, together with its partners, launched a series of Impact Papers focusing on pressing environmental and social challenges, that will trigger public discussion and exchange. ​

These papers serve as a catalyst for comprehensive research aiming to uncover innovative and sustainable solutions. ​

Our work goes around initiating feasibility studies for each theme, bringing together regulators, experts, researchers, and market participants to develop actionable plans for positive change. These studies serve as a blueprint for impactful projects that can transform Greece’s environmental and social landscape.

Examples and selected themes

Decarbonization Strategies for Greek Shipping, Reforestation and Carbon Sequestration Strategies, Social Impact Bond, Greek Pension Funds and Impact Investing
