YES! We did it! Our project "360° Inclusion – Reverse Mentoring for the C-suite", focused on disability, has received a positive review in the "Incubator of Great Tomorrow: Accessibility+" competition (Inkubator Wielkich Jutra: Dostępność+), funded by the EU and operated by DGA S.A.

Huge thanks to everyone who believed in this idea and supported us in writing the proposal: Karolina Adamska-Woźniak, Karolina Whilde, Marta Brenienek, Ewelina Staszewska, Monika Lisiecka, Eunika Lech, Marta Siech – thank you for saying YES!

Next up: a two-day Kick-off workshop and then... we’re launching the project.

Keep your fingers crossed!
