Opportunity

Hosted by: Legatum Center for Development and Entrepreneurship

APPLICATION DEADLINE: Thursday, March 16, 2017

Every year, the Legatum Center selects a cohort of approximately 20 highly-motivated entrepreneurs, who have already launched a venture, to join a one-year Fellowship. During this time students have the opportunity to build and scale their enterprise ‘on the ground,’ as well as develop the necessary knowledge, capabilities, and networks to ensure success.

The Legatum Center equips Legatum Fellows with the skills they need to succeed, not just as entrepreneurs, but as agents for change in order to transform the emerging markets to which they return. Transformative innovation, the power of free markets, entrepreneurial leadership, and grassroots development are the ideas that drive the Legatum Center’s programs, combining to create a platform for sustainable development and prosperity.

This Fellowship is intensely action-oriented and suits students who are fully committed to becoming entrepreneurial leaders and change agents in the developing world.
