Our Story

Climate change, urbanization, population growth, and access to healthcare are among the great societal challenges of our time.

At ScaleUpNation, we believe that these challenges are also major opportunities for innovative enterprises with “triple bottom line impact”. But only those ventures that scale will make a real difference.

Unfortunately, a mere 0.4% of all ventures founded reach scale (more than 10 million revenue after 5 years). For this reason, ScaleUpNation helps scale young, innovative ventures in Food and Agriculture, Mobility, and Health-tech. We do that by means of scaling programs – The Practice, research – The Lab – and a peer community.

We focus on enterprises that really punch beyond their weight: impact scale-ups. In other words, innovative, for-profit businesses that have disproportionate potential to change the world for the better, add new employment and create economic value. We are proud of our portfolio, addressing 11 of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.
