Why INCA?

Our collective, social and environmental problems of today need innovative and creative answers, which are unlikely to come from the government only. Now is the

time to invest in innovation and human talent.

Following the example of Apps for democracy, INCA is looking for both local and international talent eager to take on the challenge of demonstrating that new forms of innovation are possible and do result in successes when put into practice. Let’s

prove that we can take on this challenge!
