You are eligible

Congratulations! Your startup meets our eligibility criteria and we’re excited about the potential impact and innovation your idea brings. Please consider applying!

Ineligible

Your startup has limited transformative potential or societal benefit. Both scalability and potential for broad adoption are essential aspects for Faculty of Impact.

Perhaps there are other applications for your research?

Not sure

No reason to panic. You can get a letter of intent from a knowledge institute that states they’ll hire you at the start of the program. Our funding structure doesn’t accommodate any other way.
