Our offer to you
We are the Faculty of Impact of the Netherlands. Our work: turn science into impact. We do that by supporting promising researchers of Dutch research institutes with a two year fellowship.
That’s two years to turn your breakthrough research into a business. But not just any business. For us it’s about business with big impact. And for the record: a non-profit is a business too.

“Faculty of Impact combines science and entrepreneurship in a very special way. It stimulates valorisation networks and creates knowledge-intensive start-ups, which we desperately need in the Netherlands.”
