About LITS GlobalWe are a non-loss, non-dividend social business

We run a customized three-week impact travel program for high potentials from the corporate world.

We enable them to have a sustainable social impact in an emerging country without compromising their corporate careers.

LITS Global is built around four elements: Learning Impact Travel Sustainability

Page 4: ABOUT LITS GLOBAL

Social impact & our goalsTo make the world a better place by becoming a global provider of life-changing travel

experiences that deliver sustainable social impact in emerging countries.

By getting exposed to a completely different environment

and working on tackling challenges with the local social

business team, our participants go through a unique and intensive personal learning experience.

Developingglobal leaders

Empowering socialentrepreneurs

Promoting toleranceand understanding

We believe in social entrepreneurship as a tool for

mitigating some of the world’s most painful problems, which is why we intermediate the transfer of skills

and know-how between the for-profit and for-impact sector.

With today’s heavily interconnected world, cultural understanding and religious

tolerance is a clear pre-requisite for a prosperous future. We seek to ensure that our stakeholders see themselves as

“citizens of the world” and think and act according to it.

LITS Global teamJan Krahulik is the kind of person always looking for a deeper purpose in whatever he’s working on. During his studies at the University of Economics in Prague, he was fully dedicated to building up the world’s largest youth-run organization (both on local and national level), volunteered in Indonesia and invested significant amount of time in exploring possibilities of how business can be pursued both sustainably and efficiently.

Marek Beran had the opportunity to interact with many people from different parts of the world and with very various socioeconomic backgrounds. Those encounters made him realize the large differences in living standards of people around the world and helped him understand the challenges and issues connected with it. He sees LITS as a platform for top talents regardless their origin, status, education or financial background, to get together and build something meaningful as a team.

Veronika Losova wanted to make the world a better place since her early age - without injustice, intolerance and empty words. She dreamed of becoming a politician or a lawyer. Later on she became passionate about acquiring a more international perspective, went to study business and kept looking for different opportunities to make her dreams come true.

Zdenek Fred Fous traveled through more than 40 countries around the globe. During his travels far away he kept meeting exceptional local people – talented and friendly individuals committed to ensuring a good-quality life for themselves and their families in the often uneasy living conditions. Seeing the great obstacles they were facing and at the same time realizing how little is actually needed to empower them to overcome those obstacles, led him to start thinking about sustainable solutions to those problems.
