Our Vision and Our Mission

Creating an environment where young innovators and entrepreneurs can find support and foster entrepreneurial mindsets.

Creating new opportunities for mentorship, coaching, and various forms of support for innovation-based entrepreneurship among the youth.

Our Plan

Grid Innovation Hub is planning to work on a local scale with start-ups, SMEs, and companies to develop alternative businesses with the assistance of powerful technological support and within a hyper-connected system of horizontal sharing of ideas, needs and solutions.

Once projects have passed the test phase, the new innovative solutions are introduced on a global scale through Grid Innovation Hub international networks and partners.
