Unreasonable Institute PDF Print E-mail

The third annual Unreasonable Institute will unite 25 exceptional, early-stage entrepreneurs for 6 weeks in the summer of 2012 in the beautiful, entrepreneurial city of Boulder, Colorado.  Over the course of these 6 weeks, chosen entrepreneurs will live and work with 50 world-class mentors and portfolio managers from over 20 impact investment funds. They'll pitch ventures to hundreds of potential partners and funders, gain access to legal and design support services, and receive unprecedented levels of media exposure.

Natural Innovation has enjoyed interacting with last year's fellows, several of which have, in our opinion, the chance to make a globally significant impact. Since Unreasonable's short term intensive program is a great complement to our longer term mentoring, Natural Innovation has partnered with Unreasonable to explore ways we can support each other.

New Partner - William James Foundation PDF Print E-mail

We are also announcing our partnership with William James Foundation. WJF runs a set of business plan competitions for for-profit social entrepreneurs.

One of the strong points of the WJF competition is the extensive feedback received from judges, including Mitra. We have also been exploring ways to enable a longer term incubation by Natural Innovation to complement the short term advice from judges.

As an "outreach partner" of WJF, our mentees and network have access to discounts on the entry fee, hurry up and ask me for the code, as applications are due on October 15th.

New Partner - ReAllocate PDF Print E-mail

ReAllocate logoNatural Innovation would like to announce it's partnership with ReAllocate, a new NGO that is coordinating pro-bono engineers to work on humanitarian projects.

Unlike other excellent organizations such as Engineers Without Borders, it focuses on the short-term individual or team "consulting" projects, and on working with NGOs to solve specific humanitarian problems. ReAllocate's access to engineers is a natural complement for Natural Innovations focus on taking innovations to commercial viability.
