Apply Now: £150,000 for Digital Ventures Ready to Scale

By Wayan Vota on October 12, 2026

100x social impact funding

In January 2012, Uganda’s Ministry of Health issued a moratorium halting new eHealth projects. Donors and NGOs had piloted up to 80 different mHealth applications in Uganda in 2008, and none of them scaled. Donors paid for the pilots. Nobody paid for national rollout.

£150,000to Scale Innovations

The 100x Impact Accelerator at the London School of Economics funds the stage after proof. It wants ventures with evidence that their model works and a credible route to hundreds of millions of people.

Each selected venture receives £150,000 in catalytic grant funding and a 16-week accelerator programme on scaling strategy and impact measurement.

The portfolio leans digital. Intelehealth is a 100x alumni. I can personally vouch for their support. Adalat AI, Darsel, Wysa and the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team are also in the portfolio.

Who Can Apply

  • For-profit and non-profit ventures registered or operating anywhere in the world
  • Ventures working in one of 100x’s eight impact areas, from health and social care to democracy
  • Ventures with a track record of adoption and validated outcomes..
  • 100x aims for 70% of its portfolio from emerging markets and favours founders based where the venture operates

Apply Now! Deadline is November 2, 2026
