A Sustainary project
BRAVE!
A Sustainary initiative empowering minority-led startups in Denmark through mentorship, workshops, and a dedicated crowdfunding accelerator.

Purpose
To support and empower startups led by people from minority backgrounds in Denmark, helping founders overcome challenges like limited access to funding, networks, or local business knowledge — and give them a real shot at growing their ideas.
Inside the project
In practice.
Project Description
BRAVE! was an initiative by Sustainary designed to support and empower startups led by people from minority backgrounds in Denmark. The goal was to help these founders overcome common challenges — like limited access to funding, networks, or local business knowledge. One of the standout parts of the program was the BRAVE! Crowdfunding Accelerator, created especially for international or non-Danish entrepreneurs with purpose-driven startups. To join, startups needed to be based in Denmark, be market-ready, and have at least half of their founding team come from minority backgrounds.
Activities
Mentorship, hands-on workshops, and the BRAVE! Crowdfunding Accelerator for purpose-driven minority-led startups.
