How We Work

The SAP-G Hub Model: From Co-Creation to Scale

Time-bound, agile SAP-Hubs (18–24 months) unite society, academia, government and the private sector around specific SDG challenges — from first insight to cross-border scale.

Formation of SAP-Hubs

Establish time-bound hubs (18–24 months) around specific SDG challenges, bringing society, academia, government and the private sector together.

01

Co-Creation & Prototyping

Society contributes local knowledge, academia provides evidence, and the private sector brings technology, tools and financing models.

02

Measure & Scale via SDG Corridors

Track progress with the SDG Reality Index (SRI) and replicate successful prototypes across borders through trans-boundary SDG corridors.
