The IAP assessment criteria
There are five IAP eligibility criteria that applications are assessed against, as outlined in the Guide for Applicants which you can download from the page How to Apply. A guide to how IAP reviews and assesses submissions against these criteria can be accessed here.
The Practitioner Hub
The Practitioner Hub is an online community for entrepreneurs that has been developed by IAP and the British initiative “Business Innovation Facility” to provide a space for practitioners to connect, share experiences and gain new insights to help their inclusive business ventures grow. The hub is an excellent tool if you for instance want read more about successful applicants or learn more about inclusive business.
IAP application workshops
Unfortunately, we do not have the time to meet and talk with all potential applicants. Our outreach is primarily done through workshops. In October 2012, we are planning application workshops in Stockholm, Malmö and, Addis Abeba, Ethiopia.

We have also recorded an application workshop that was held in the spring of 2012. The workshop and the material used can be accessed here.
