PROJECTS
Since 2018, Konecta Foundation has been running the Emprende + Discapacidad call for applications seeking to support the entrepreneurship of people with disabilities.
With this initiative, Konecta Foundation provides an initial boost for the establishment and development of new entrepreneurial projects by and for people with disabilities, as well as to promote the development of initiatives aimed at improving their quality of life. All projects fall into two categories: projects promoted by people with disabilities and projects whose aim is to improve the quality of life of these people.
In addition, all those who wish to participate are eligible for a €5,000 prize and a start-up acceleration service led by Fundación ONCE, through which a team of experts will support the winners for a year to model their business idea, develop and accelerate the business model, as well as connect its founders with entities of the associative movement of people with disabilities and the elderly.
Objective: to promote and support the entrepreneurship of people with disabilities.
