ArmInfo.Teach For Armenia is partnering with HSBC Armenia to implement the Káits Social Innovation Incubator — Armenia’s first-ever incubator dedicated to education.
This week, the Káits Pitch Event was held, where candidates pitched their ideas for the chance to receive funding from HSBC Armenia. “HSBC Armenia's partnership significantly enhances the influence and scope of the Káits Pitch Event.
Collaborations of this magnitude are the catalysts for profound and lasting change,” said Armine Gevorgyan, Leadership Pathways Manager at Teach For Armenia. Founded in 2020, the Teach For Armenia Káits Social Innovation Incubator fosters solutions to challenges in Armenia’s education sector. Through Káits,Teach For Armenia alumni harness their experiences teaching in rural communities to develop social ventures in education. Káits has three phases: Pitch, Prototype, and Launch through which an idea is developed, refined, and actualized.
Participants receive access to social innovation curriculum, coaching, and funding to develop and launch their own social ventures. “Supporting the sustainable development of communities in which we operate is a strategic priority for HSBC Armenia. To fulfill this commitment, we implement projects in collaboration with our charity partners. We are happy to combine our efforts with Teach For Armenia for implementation of this project. I believe, it will motivate the youth from regions enabling them to acquire the skills required to become active drivers of innovation and progress in their communities,” said Irina Seylanyan, CEO of HSBC Armenia
