Towards more inclusive and sustainable economies
Bridge for Billions is a social enterprise providing international actors with social impact expertise and incubation programs design. It counts with a multicultural team of experts located across the world, all committed to making a change.
Bridge for Billions was founded in 2015 with the purpose of supporting local entrepreneurs in different regions across the world, for economies to grow in a more sustainable and inclusive way.
Many cutting-edge businesses and ideas fail at a very early-stage phase, because entrepreneurs lack of resources, network or opportunities. By filling these gaps, we challenge the idea that entrepreneurship is only for the privileged and provide an alternative solution to inclusive development.
Based in New York, with offices in Spain and Guatemala, the organization serves as a social impact expert, providing consultancy and actionable strategies to global leaders. By fostering collaboration between change-makers, we create measurable impact through initiatives that empower early-stage entrepreneurs.
We adopted a learn-by-doing, MIT inspired methodology based on an online platform and flexible and cultural-fit programs, for entrepreneurs of all kinds to thrive, regardless of their background, gender, or origin.
By 2024, we partnered with over 120 international organizations and corporations. Together, we have already supported up to 5,800 new ventures, improving their survival rates, creating new jobs and transforming lives and ecosystems across the US, Latin America, Europe and Africa.
