Impact

Since 2012, Envolve has been at the forefront of the startup and innovation ecosystem in Greece, E.U. and the U.S.A. We set founders at the focal point, having met dozens of thousands entrepreneurs, travelling to over 22 cities in Greece, meeting innovation players and policy makers, providing founders support, networking opportunities, training and funding. 

Through the Envolve Award Greece program, the Envolve Team has reviewed over 8,500 business plans, has interviewed over 350 teams annually and has supported the establishment and growth of over 37 teams with the provision of over 6,000,000€, mentorship and business support services.
