A good business idea is one that fills a gap in the market. For years,
the three partners behind A Million Senses, a brand-new social startup
that organizes package holiday deals for families with autistic
children, had been keenly aware of one such gap. Having worked in the
special education sector, all three had firsthand experience regarding
the various difficulties that families wishing to enjoy a vacation
together had to face.
“Every year we witnessed the agony across the faces of parents of
children with low functioning autism [Editor’s note: The spectrum of
autism covers a range of disorders from classic autism to Asperger’s
syndrome] when the summer holidays were approaching as it meant
treatment and educational facilities would soon close,” AMS founding
partner, Angela Menni, told Kathimerini.
