Stand in solidarity with refugee founders by sponsoring public showcases, pitches and popup shops. Refugee founders use these events to show the world what they can do, to gain new followers, customers and partners.

A lack of access to capital is one of the key challenges facing our community. Help us close this gap by partnering with our independent fund, Skylight, or exploring our more targeted investment propositions.
