Digital Partners India recognized early on the great potential
that new information and communication technologies have to
shape emerging economies and serve markets for the benefit
of the poor. To activate this tremendous potential, Digital
Partners India helped develop and supported The Social Enterprise
Incubator (SEI) to support those whose vision and business
models seek to use ICT to empower the poor and their underserved
communities.
Applicants selected by our team of judges to become part
of the six-month SEI process are provided mentorship services
(assistance to design, incubate, deploy and scale innovative
projects) by teams of professionals from selected graduate
schools and industry. At the conclusion of the process,
seed funding is awarded to those projects deemed to be the
most promising based on projected social benefit and capacity
to achieve sustainability. Previous investments have ranged
from $10,000 to $100,000.
