Fiverr Launches Ideatorr for Young Entrepreneurs
# social-impact
In collaboration with football star Bukayo Saka and UK agency Youth Beyond Borders, Ideatorr was created to equip young and motivated entrepreneurs with the necessary skills, resources, and guidance to bring their social enterprise and community-based ideas to life. By connecting them with Fiverr's freelance talent and leveraging YBB's expertise and network of mentors, Ideatorr will create an environment where dreams can flourish. As part of the program, the inaugural cohort of 12 early-stage entrepreneurs will receive:
- 8 weeks of live online curriculum covering topics across brand purpose, market research, etc.
- 1:1 mentorship with inspiring mentors from Salesforce, The Inkey List, Manchester United, VC firms, and more
- £1,500 in Fiverr credits and £1,000 in cash per entrepreneur
- An opportunity for cash prizes at the final pitching event in December
- Dedicated support and tailored freelancer recommendations from Fiverr CSMs
- 1 year subscription to CreativeLive
Ideatorr aligns with one of our three* social impact focus areas: Economic Opportunity. Our goal is to champion economic opportunity for aspiring freelancers and entrepreneurs from diverse or underserved backgrounds. In fulfillment of these focus areas, we continue to make strides towards leaving an impact on the communities we serve.
