What is Snjallræði?
Snjallræði is a 16-week growth space (incubator) that supports powerful teams that are passionate about solutions to contemporary challenges and support the United Nations' global goals. There may be solutions related to healthcare, welfare technology, improved education systems and equality issues. Snjallræði was founded by Höfði Peace Center in 2018 and has been run six times since the beginning. The growth space is in collaboration with MITdesignX and is the focus of workshops where experts from MIT come to the country and share their knowledge. Participants get access to education and training from national and foreign experts in the field of social issues and innovation and meetings with experienced mentors.
