The first ever Sankalp Global Innovation Challenge (Sankalp GIC) is a call for innovative technology-based product solutions that can reach the Next 3 Billion (N3B) and contribute to inclusive development. We are looking for new products that are solving a pressing challenge for low income communities (at under US$4 a day) or are otherwise underserved because of geographic or social exclusion. We encourage applications from new and early-stage product companies and inventors that have created a proof of concept with some evidence of its efficacy in addressing social challenges.
The types of product innovations that we find especially exciting are those that:
– Solve an access problem – bringing solutions to doorsteps of those in need;
– Solve an affordability problem – reducing the cost of a product;
– Build quality solutions – low-cost need not mean low-quality;
– Contextualize for the real-world. e.g. they move away from reliance on highly developed infrastructure (3g/internet), highly skilled talent (ex: engineers and doctors).
Make Room is our partner organization: An Indian-European ecosystem where Young Leaders build innovative solutions; Change-makers accelerate their goals by open dialogue and exchange of good practices; Sustainable Solutions are Advocated for social change.
