About the Organization

Since our founding in 1935, Morgan Stanley has consistently delivered first-class business in a first-class way. Underpinning all that we do are five core values: Do the right thing, put clients first, lead with exceptional ideas, commit to diversity and inclusion, and give back.

We believe capital can work to benefit all of society. We make this belief a reality by doing the right thing, putting clients first, leading with exceptional ideas, committing to diversity and inclusion, and giving back.

About the Grant

We provide early-stage innovators with access to capital and resources to help them develop and scale. Our mission is to foster a more equitable and sustainable investment landscape.

Two Accelerator Programs:

Morgan Stanley Inclusive & Sustainable Ventures (MSISV) includes two in-house accelerator programs—a Lab designed for startup founders and a Collaborative to support emerging nonprofits.

• The Lab: For Startups - MSISV Lab is a for-profit accelerator that provides early-stage startups with capital and resources to scale innovative solutions.
• The Collaborative: For Nonprofits - MSISV Collaborative is a nonprofit accelerator that provides emerging organizations with capital and resources to scale innovative solutions.

Access to Capital:

Morgan Stanley will provide participating Lab companies with an equity investment, a five-month curated program, mentorship, networking, office space for the duration of the program and access to certain external advisors. The equity investment is $250,000 for each company participating in our New York-based program and £250,000 for each company participating in our London-based program. Each participating Collaborative nonprofit will receive a $250,000 grant if based in the Americas, £250,000 for all other regions and access to the same program content as the Lab.

Powerful Networks:

We introduce commercial startups and emerging nonprofits to our bankers, financial advisors, technology experts and others who can connect each organization to their industry networks. We also support their access to the broader investor ecosystem.

Mentoring and More:

Morgan Stanley pairs each organization with hand-picked mentors, entrepreneurs in residence and advisors who provide counsel and coaching to help each company and nonprofit grow and scale.

How to Apply

The deadline for applying to either accelerator program is March 14, 2025.
