Many young people have innovative ideas that could contribute to the solution of our society’s problems. What is needed are collaborative networks that allow developing these ideas into sustainable business models. The Hub Zürich provides such a network and I therefore fully endorse this exciting endeavor!

We are excited about the potential collaborations between The Hub Zürich and Global Footprint Network, particularly as we strengthen our Swiss presence. The Hub Zürich is a fantastic local initiative to bootstrap much-needed sustainability ventures. In addition, the Hub comes with strong connections to other Hubs around the world. It is this magic combination of global reach, local embeddedness, and infectious contacts with so many sustainability-minded colleagues that makes the concept so appealing.

Dr. Mathis Wackernagel, Founder and President of Global Footprint Network

The Hub is one of those inspiring projects to foster social innovation across the globe. I personally support The Hub Zürich for their combination of grass-root entrepreneurship and high-level professional management: A promising approach worthwhile to be cultivated at the intersection of philanthropy and business.
