How it works

  • Application

    Apply to the Fellowship! You will be invited to an interview to detail your skills and interests. Once admitted, you will be matched with a project and mentor that align with your goals.

  • Project Assignment

    Once matched, you may choose to work alone, or join a project team of other young talents, guided by an experienced mentor. Conduct cutting-edge research, build tools for government, create movements that speak to you.

  • The Fellowship

    You will collaborate closely with your team and mentor to tackle your project. Regular meetings and workshops will be mixed with socials and presentation opportunities.

  • Demo Day

    Your Fellowship experience builds up to Demo Day; when your team takes the stage to share your work with the public. But it doesn’t stop there. Join our alumni network, and bring your projects to life!
