Posted on April 28, 2025

HP Inc. (NYSE: HPQ) and the HP Foundation announced the selection of 8 nonprofit organizations in Greece, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Spain for the 2025 Digital Equity Accelerator (Accelerator). The Accelerator will provide the 2025 cohort with a USD $100,000 grant, HP technology (~USD $100,000 value), and six months of virtual training to strengthen capacity and drive digital inclusion.

 

“The future of work depends on equitable access to technology, digital skills, and opportunity,” said Michele Malejki, Global Head of Social Impact, HP Inc. and ExecutiveDirector, HP Foundation. “Through the Digital Equity Accelerator, HP is empowering nonprofits to bridge the digital divide, ensuring disconnected adolescents and adults have the tools and training needed to thrive in an increasingly digital world. By investing in these organizations, we are not just expanding access—we are powering the future of work.”

 

A $1 trillion-plus digital divide is limiting billions from achieving equal access to education and economic opportunities. Through the Accelerator, HP collaborates with a network of partners to help nonprofit organizations scale digital equity solutions.

 

Yesh Surjoodeen, Managing Director, Southern Africa: “With access to technology, digital literacy, AI tools, and digital skills content, disconnected adolescents and adults can unlock their potential and pursue meaningful careers. HP Nigeria is honored to be part of this year’s 2025 Digital Equity Accelerator and congratulates She-Code Africa Women Tech Initiative and Slum2School for their selection to the 2025 Cohort.”
