What does S-GRID stand for?

Note: As of April 2022, the S-GRID program has merged to become part of the TRANSFORM Support Hub, powered by MovingWorlds. Please visit the General TRANSFORM Support Hub FAQs here to learn more about the program, and the TRANSFORM Support Hub FAQs for social enterprises here.

S-GRID stands for Sustainable Growth of Revenues for International Development, a program that provides foundational support to social enterprise so that they can continue to innovate and grow. The introduction of grid layouts in city planning dates back to 2600 BC. Their introduction fostered innovation in navigation, buildings, business models, mobility, safety, and more. In cities with grids, you can more easily navigate, and even people with blindness can travel safely. Their simplicity in name and layout means their importance is often overlooked, yet they are foundational to progress.
