OSV Fellowship and Grant Program 2025 (Grant of $10,000)

Deadline: 28th February 2025

The Fellowships and Grants empower individuals of the highest caliber whose work positively impacts the world, from scientific breakthroughs and technological innovations to enduring artistic and cultural contributions.

While their Fellows and Grantees pursue many projects across multiple domains, they all embody certain traits:

• Personal Agency: Everyone has the power and capability to actively shape their future. They seek individuals who have consistently demonstrated initiative and proactiveness in their work and actions, reflecting a strong sense of personal agency.
• Exemplary Proof-of-work: Past performance does not necessarily predict future performance, but it offers valuable insights into an individual’s character and capabilities. A history of exemplary work in any domain will serve as a strong indicator of your skills, ability, and potential.
• Resourcefulness: The Fellowships will provide financial aid to get your project off the ground, but how creatively can you use that funding to achieve the maximum impact in the shortest amount of time? They’re looking for people who are determined, have demonstrated good judgment, and can make ingenious use of limited resources to achieve their goals.

Benefit

Alongside their ten Fellowships, up to twenty individuals will each receive a $10,000 grant and access to OSV’s network of founders, investors, and experts to support them in bringing their projects to life.

Eligibility 

• The fellowship is open to adults worldwide, regardless of their background. They only require that you have a strong portfolio of proof of work.
• Individuals over the age of 18 can apply.
