After a strong start in January with a first capital raising of 3.5 million euros, Lixo joins 50partners in February 2021.
As its name suggests, 50partners was founded by 50 entrepreneurs from impact companies such as Phenix, Blablacar or La Ruche qui dit oui. Their ambition is to create an accelerator dedicated to startups that will become tomorrow's success stories. The accelerator brings together companies that develop innovative environmental or social solutions to provide a direct response to one or more of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs according to the UN).
Once integrated into the program, 50partners provides access to all the resources necessary for companies to implement projects that match their ambitions. Mentoring sessions, financing proposals, office space, network sharing and much more... Every month, meetings are organized around the entrepreneurs' issues and the Partners' expertise. The support is designed to be long-term in order to provide support and knowledge during the different phases of the company's life.
Each year, only 6 to 8 projects are selected to integrate this program, of which Lixo is now a part. It is a real opportunity to capitalize on this platform for sharing knowledge and expertise in order to envision the future of Lixo in an ever more ambitious way.
