The

Accelerator

The Toilet Board Coalition accelerates business solutions to the sanitation crisis via the sector’s leading Accelerator. We match  entrepreneurs  with  global business leaders and investors to drive progress on Sustainable Development Goal 6 – sanitation for all by 2030. The Accelerator is a 12-month virtual programme offered in English, Spanish, French and Khmer.

We accelerate business solutions through business model coaching, corporate mentorship and access to investment. Over the last ten years, the Coalition has graduated 111 SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises), impacting more than 13 million people daily and unlocking US$49 million in finance.
