The Shine Program UK is back!
14 November 2023 - Impact Hub London

Impact Hub London is thrilled to announce the return of the Shine Program UK‘s second edition – now accepting applications!

Once again, we are teaming up with Swiss Re and our partners at BOOKBRIDGE to incubate resilience in the UK. The Shine Program UK’s second edition aims to empower the next generation of social innovators in transforming their ideas and solutions into scalable business models with the potential for maximum social impact. After a successful first edition last year, we are looking to support early-stage entrepreneurs, who are trying to address challenges in the areas of climate risk management (Climate-smart agriculture, Disaster risk reduction, transformation to net zero – e.g. renewable energy, afforestation, recycling,) and access to health (including healthy nutrition).

Selected social entrepreneurs will embark on a five-month immersive nurture program. During this journey, they will be closely mentored by Swiss Re experts and receive guidance. Together, they will craft financially viable and scalable business plans.

As an added incentive, at the culmination of the Shine Program, the chosen innovator will have the opportunity to secure a financial award of up to GBP 30,000 to fuel their growth.

Don’t miss this chance to be a part of the Shine Program UK’s second edition. To apply, click here.

The application deadline is November 30.
