Minka
In Bolivia, more than a third of the population lives in poverty, with almost 85% of the labor force working in the informal sector. This makes most of the population vulnerable to cover unforeseen expenses and basic needs.
Minka is the first Bolivian crowdfunding platform that allows individuals in need to raise funds internationally, while increasing transparency and trustworthiness in the campaigns.
Motifs
There are 210,000 illiterate people in French-speaking Switzerland. 50% of them were born and educated here, in the Romandie, and 70% already speak French, but can't write or even read it. A new approach to teaching French is needed.
Thanks to a range of didactic tools and professional expertise, including the creation and development of Phonocolor, Motifs supports trainers in their mission to teach French.
MYMUSEUM
MYMUSEUM is a platform offering a detailed agenda of current museum exhibitions and activities, as well as professional reviews and thematic itineraries between the various institutions. It promotes Swiss museums, where all too often real treasures slumber in anonymity.

reCOVer-e
In Switzerland, 300,000 people suffer from long covid. Patients in care have to record their various symptoms by hand, which makes analysis difficult and burdensome for therapists.
ReCOVer-e is an application that offers a digital symptom diary that is fast, simple, available and motivating. Data is classified, aggregated and analyzed quickly and easily, for better patient care.
Sustainable Landscapes
Coffee and cocoa account for over 90% of the added value of Switzerland's foreign agricultural trade. Yet the subsidiary's companies face challenges in their supply chain due to the harmful effects of other economic activities on the same landscape.
Sustainable Landscapes helps Swiss subsidiary companies to source high-quality coffee and cocoa, by supporting agreements between representatives of economic activities in the landscape to change their practices and reduce harmful effects.
