ABOUT
Are you a female tech founder with a social purpose?
The We in Social Tech growth accelerator programme has been created to support 60 ambitious women-led social tech businesses over two years.
Whether you’re starting out or are already established, the most important thing is that you’re passionate about making a positive impact with your business.
The accelerator is delivered by Nwes, the largest not-for-private-profit enterprise agency in the UK, and supported by Deutsche Bank, through its social enterprise programme Made for Good.
