Call to Register: Social Enterprise Incubator
Eurasia Foundation’s Social Enterprise Acceleration Initiative (SEAI) in Uzbekistan, in partnership with “Yuksalish,” is seeking ambitious innovators interested in launching a social enterprise. Interested parties are invited to attend two online information sessions to learn more about the Social Enterprise Incubator and how to apply.
SEAI supports the development of the social entrepreneurship sector and reduces poverty in Uzbekistan by addressing the social and economic challenges faced by marginalized communities. SEIA’s Social Enterprise Incubator assists youth, women, aspiring entrepreneurs, mahallas, and civil society organizations who wish to turn their vision for social entrepreneurship into reality.
The Incubator will run from October 2024 to March 2025 and include an intensive online training series. Participants will have the opportunity to visit Kazakhstan on a study tour, attend networking events in Tashkent, and participate in a pitching seminar. Five participants will each receive a $15,000 grant to launch or scale up their social enterprise, with ongoing mentoring. Further details on the program are available in Uzbek and in Russian.
The first cohort will consist of 25 participants. To be considered, you must attend the two online information sessions.
