Stockholm-based Norrsken, an impact VC fund that helps entrepreneurs tackle the biggest environmental and social problems in the world, announced on Wednesday the 20 startups participating in the 2023 Norrsken Accelerator.
The 2023 cohort consists of 9 nations and solutions in the areas of climate technology, AI for education, sustainable agriculture, robotics, transportation, financial inclusion, and gender equality.
The Accelerator programme is designed to find the world’s “most promising” early-stage impact startups and help them scale.
The participating businesses were chosen after being reviewed in accordance with the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals, and they were graded according to the scope and depth of their potential impacts. Unintended and harmful side-effects of success have also been considered.
