Calientamigos, a project outcome of the award winning Safe Agua Colombia studio has been selected to participate in the 2015 Village Capital Accelerator Program. Team Calientamigos (Mariana Somma, Della Tosin, Kevin Chang and Tianyi Sun) will attend three intensive, four-day workshops over three months, during which Village Capital will provide the entrepreneurs with business development training to develop their financials, pitch and sales pipeline.
The Calientamigos system allows impoverished families living without hot running water to heat and pressurize water for bathing, cooking and cleaning.
Village Capital puts entrepreneurs, investors, policymakers and stakeholders side-by-side, so they can solve problems together.
