Deadline:5th June 2025
The Emerging Leaders Fellowship Program is a 3-month leadership development program (with 2 cohorts in 2025) created specifically to expand the capacity of early-stage entrepreneurs and ecosystem builders, empowering them to strengthen their local ecosystem of under-resourced women-identifying entrepreneurs.
Their program amplifies women leaders and creates an “each one, teach one” model for growing underrepresented founders’ long-term entrepreneurial knowledge and sustainability. They cultivate local leaders who, in turn, nurture their communities to promote equal opportunities for underrepresented women entrepreneurs to thrive.
