Elevator Pitch
Lupahelp is a digital platform that makes local businesses visible and provides tools to improve their environmental management. https://youtu.be/I6MCfe0Heqw?si=n4tfM67Aq1SmTJBM
Climate Problem
It faces the lack of visibility and support to neighborhood businesses, in addition to the lack of environmental management in the area of solid waste.
Solution
We will create content for social networks and businesses will be organized on the page. We will provide tools and guidance on environmental management issues and in the future we want to create community recycling contests.
Revenue Model

Demand Evidence
We live in the area where we developed the pilot project (Colonia Roosevelt zone 11 Guatemala), visitors and new residents are not aware of what exists in the neighborhood. Many businesses do not make themselves known and we turn to distant businesses.
Competitors
Our competitors are projects or platforms that focus on supporting and making local businesses visible. Such as Guatemala.com and lolocalgt.com. We differentiate ourselves because we offer a combination of communication and sustainability in accompaniment.
