About the Organization

The Hult Prize is a global startup program that challenges young people to build for-profit businesses that create measurable social and environmental impact. Since 2010, it has grown into one of the world’s largest student movements for social entrepreneurship, engaging millions of participants in more than 130 countries.

About the Fellowship

At Hult Prize, we back early-career talent the same way we back founders. We run the world’s largest impact startup competition (200,000+ annual participants, 15,000+ startups, 2,000+ campuses, 130+ countries), and this fellowship places you inside that engine, shaping the entrepreneurs who will define the next decade of impact.

This year, we’re selecting up to five people at the earliest stages of their careers to spend eight months with us learning the craft of impact venture, program design, ecosystem building, and impact measurement, while building a global startup network and seeing firsthand how impact companies are built.

At the end of the fellowship, we back you to take your next step by actively supporting you to move into roles as an investor, startup operator, founder, or impact and sustainability professional.

Benefits

• 10+ masterclasses and workshops built around real investment, impact, and founder work.
• 200+ hours of hands-on training in startup evaluation, founder interviews, due diligence, and program ops.
• 1:1 mentorship from Hult Prize operators and industry leaders, on both the work and your career path.
• A paid fellowship with an estimated $475/month stipend*, distributed in three installments tied to each phase of the program.
• A fully funded trip to the Global Accelerator in London: flights, visas, housing, and meals covered for up to a month (worth up to $10,000).**
• Global exposure across 130+ countries, working with founders, mentors, and partners in a truly international ecosystem.
• A clear next step: either a full scholarship for a Master’s at Hult International Business School (upon successful completion) or warm introductions and support into roles in VC, startups, impact, or ecosystem building.

Eligibility

We welcome applications from early-career talent and recent graduates who:

• Are fluent in English (spoken and written).
• Care deeply about startups, social innovation, and impact investing.
• Have some exposure to startups, VC, finance, consulting, research, community building, or program ops through work, projects, or student leadership.
• Are comfortable working remotely across time zones, in fast-changing, multicultural teams.
• Can commit 20–30 hours per week from February to September, with intensity peaks in April and late August.
• Are available to join us in London between August 2026 and September 5, 2026.
• Are hungry to learn by doing, and ready to work directly with founders rather than just study them.

In line with our commitment to global inclusion and our mission to diversify the impact ecosystem, we strongly encourage candidates from underrepresented and overlooked communities, particularly from Latin America, MENA, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Central & South Asia, to apply.
