GenerationS Corporate Accelerator is among the winners of ITU Innovation Challenge 2020 in the category "Ecosystem best practice challenge".
The Telecommunication Development Sector (ITU-D) fosters international cooperation and solidarity in the delivery of technical assistance and in the creation, development and improvement of telecommunication and ICT equipment and networks in developing countries. ITU-D is required to discharge the Union's dual responsibility as a United Nations specialized agency and executing agency for implementing projects under the United Nations development system or other funding arrangements, so as to facilitate and enhance telecommunication/ICT development by offering, organizing and coordinating technical cooperation and assistance activities.
In total teams from 26 countries took part the challenge. GenerationS submitted the «Innovation Guide» project and became not the only winning accelerator in its category, but also the only Russian accelerator among all the winning projects. In the end of October the winners will take part in Global Innovation Forum, which is marked as one of the key international innovation events.
