Our Partners

2nd Life Pakistan began as a collaboration between Unilever Pakistan and SEED Ventures in the first cycle, focusing on innovative solutions to address plastic waste. In the second cycle, we partnered with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) to expand our efforts. Together, we ventured into new industries with an enhanced Acceleration Challenge, supported by changemakers across sectors. We’re proud to work with startups, researchers, and organizations that share our vision for a cleaner, more sustainable Pakistan.
