Deadline: January 7, 2025
Applications are open for the Future Founders Fellowship 2025 for Young Entrepreneurs. Future Founders is seeking applications for its prestigious year-long fellowship program designed to accelerate the nation’s top young entrepreneurs and their businesses. The fellowship is structured around you as a leader, investing in your personal development alongside the growth of your company.
Gain access to a national community of successful young founders like you who are building game-changing businesses. Through the Fellowship, you will learn how to become a better founder, grow your business, and develop a network of support for this roller coaster ride they call entrepreneurship.
Benefits
- Accelerate your personal and business growth through the prestigious year-long Fellowship program. Fellows like you can have priority access to all Future Founders services including mentoring, skill development, entrepreneurship retreats, a peer community, and volunteer opportunities through other Future Founders programs. Join the ranks of previous Fellows who have accomplished some incredible things.
Eligibility
- Future Founders programs are industry agnostic (they’ve worked with everything from jewelry to drones).
- The programming is geared for people 18-30ish years of age. You have to be at least 18 to qualify. Totally cool if you’re in your thirties, especially if this is your first go-around within entrepreneurship or you need a community to support you in this journey.
- Co-founders must submit their own applications to be considered. Co-founders will not be eligible to both participate in the Fellowship; If you have two co-founders you’d like to be considered, they may each apply, but only one may be selected.
- Applicants should be the primary equity holder and decision maker within their company/business.
- Most of the programming is held virtually, but each program includes at least one retreat in Chicago. You do not need to live in or relocate to Chicago if selected. Unfortunately, at this time, they cannot work with companies HQ’d outside of the United States.
Application
The deadline for early consideration is January 7, 2025 at 11:59pm CT. The deadline for regular consideration is February 2, 2025 at 11:59pm CT.
