Morgan Stanley's Inclusive & Sustainable Ventures (MSISV) has revealed its 2026 cohort for its accelerator program, supporting early-stage ventures aiming to address global challenges through sustainability and social impact.

The MSISV program will concentrate on four key themes for 2026: Environment, Health & Wellbeing, Economic Empowerment, and Education & Human Capital. The selection focused on societal challenges and the potential for innovative solutions.

Companies in this year's cohort operate in diverse sectors, including space infrastructure, precision healthcare, and next-generation energy. A significant number also aim to improve outcomes for underserved communities.
