Problem

La falta de opciones de movilidad sostenible en zonas rurales limita el acceso al turismo, frena el desarrollo económico local y contribuye a la despoblación. Además, los modelos tradicionales de alquiler de bicicletas suelen ser poco rentables y difíciles de escalar en estos territorios.

Solution

Turicleta desarrolla un modelo innovador basado en estaciones digitales de bicicletas eléctricas autónomas y autosuficientes, gestionadas mediante una app. Este sistema permite operar sin personal, facilita la movilidad sostenible en municipios rurales y alojamientos turísticos, y genera oportunidades de empleo y desarrollo local.

Impact

El proyecto prevé 1,7 millones de euros en ingresos por ventas en 2025 y la creación de 19 empleos directos, incluidos 10 para personas en riesgo de exclusión. Para 2026 se estima alcanzar 35 empleos directos, consolidando un modelo que impulsa el turismo sostenible, la cohesión territorial y la economía local.

Driving the impact ecosystem in Spain and beyond

Since 2017, María Ángeles León has played a key role in promoting a culture of purpose-driven and financially disciplined investment.



Her leadership has helped to change the way in which capital is mobilised for social change, not only as a funding tool, but as a driving force for transformation.

Open Value was founded on a long-term commitment to making a difference by its founders, María Ángeles León and Francisco García Paramés. For more than 25 years, they have dedicated part of their personal wealth to initiatives that improve the lives of vulnerable communities, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa.

Initially, through traditional philanthropy, they later adopted more sustainable approaches, inspired by pioneers like Acumen and Yunus Social Business. That journey gave rise to the Open Value Foundation (OVF) in 2017.

We are committed to a long-term approach with social entrepreneurs to help their initiatives grow through a hybrid financial model that combines grants with other impact investment instruments and technical assistance.

Impact Investment

Our aim is to help social enterprises and organisations become profitable and scale up their impact by providing patient capital, technical support and partnerships.

Strategic Philanthropy

We fund projects that align with our purpose, focusing resources on job creation for individuals with fewer opportunities, which in some cases can be transformed into loans and generate returns.
