Sustainable impact is emerging as one of the key verticals in the country’s entrepreneurship ecosystem,” co-founder of Changelabs Karim Samra said. The Changelabs accelerator program provides training, mentorship, and support to the selected innovative startups, helping them face the challenges of the market in a practical way, turning their ideas into investment-ready businesses.
