GIC iX Program Scholarship

Global Innovation Catalyst provides a limited scholarship program for talented individuals from diverse backgrounds who have a passion for entrepreneurship. You are the best person to bring your idea to market & we'll show you the way. We partner with donor organizations, which support high-tech entrepreneurship around the world. Eligible participants can apply for need-based scholarships. We require an explanation of your financial situation. Since each situation is different, our team will assess each request individually. Aid will be offered based on your financial situation and the amount of financial aid we have available. In the past, our needs-based scholarships have covered 20% – 90% of participant’s program fees. After an eligible participant is accepted into the program, our program team will work with them to provide assistance. We are committed to helping high-potential participants join the program and we believe that personal finances should not prevent ambitious, aspiring entrepreneurs from joining our program. All candidates are screened on a competitive basis, giving priority to those individuals who: a) are willing to pursue their own business idea, b) have the ability to contribute a certain percentage of the program fees, c) enrol in teams of 2-5 people, and d) are willing to dedicate 15-20 hours of their time per week to the program. Please submit the form below and you will be notified of your standing once the review process is completed.
