Our Story

Promise Hub was founded in 2016 by serial entrepreneurs Dave Erickson and Harald Neidhart.

While setting up a mobile health clinic in 2016, a Syrian girl named Waed handed our Co-Founder, Harald, a letter containing a promise: to shed the label of refugee and regain her unique identity as a human being. 

Her call for dignity made us realize the need to bring opportunities closer to individuals wherever they may be - this provided the grounding spirit for Promise Hub. 

We believe in the vast potential of all human beings, that with the right tools and encouragement, people will self-organize and dynamically seek solutions. 

HUMAN FIRST

Promise Hub is an innovative e-commerce incubator that provides real tools, training and mentoring, resulting in new local incomes, jobs and the discovery of emergent solutions to local challenges.

 We have an unwavering belief in the innate talents and abilities of our fellow human beings to succeed in this digital age.  We believe that every individual has dreams and abilities that can be realized. We understand that although the resources of our world are not evenly distributed, the means exist to overcome these barriers.

So, working through local Impact Teams, we provide the “recipe” to identify those individuals who can become local job creators and develop their potential by providing the best tools, education, training and access to the Digital Marketplace, Financial Inclusion and Logistics. 
Everything an Internet Entrepreneur would need to succeed.

Our innovative, human-centric approach is set to foster a digital environment where all people are encouraged to explore and harness their passion and purpose to become entrepreneurs and create local jobs. In so doing, they are able to create a sustainable local economy and create jobs and further opportunities.
