The Ideation Fellowship.
Designed to help you launch a successful company with global impact.

For those who don’t have traction for their business idea yet, the EWOR Ideation Fellowship turns an aspiring entrepreneur into a successful tech entrepreneur.

Ideally yes, but not necessarily. The EWOR Ideation Fellowship is designed for those who don’t have traction for their business idea yet. The EWOR Ideation Fellowship is entirely remote and turns aspiring entrepreneurs into business owners.

For those who don’t have traction for their business idea yet, the EWOR Ideation Fellowship turns an aspiring entrepreneur into a business owner. For those who do already have traction, the EWOR Traction Fellowship is designed to help them scale their venture. The Traction Fellowship is split into two phases to make it the most effective. As founders of some of the most successful companies in Europe, our lecturers and mentors have all learned first-hand what it takes to succeed in the business world. They give engaging live lectures in phase one, while the second phase gives EWOR members access to hundreds of resources on our platform, network, and feedback sessions with our mentors.

Please use the application form on our website to apply for our Fellowships. It’s an extensive questionnaire that inquires about your experiences, motivations, and qualifications. Applicants typically take at least 30 minutes to complete the questionnaire.

We do not limit ourselves and our talent pool to a specific industry or technology sector.

Our selection committee consists of successful serial entrepreneurs and start-up investors - including several unicorn founders. The EWOR Fellowships have an acceptance rate of 0.1%.

The live sessions are in the late afternoon or early evening CET time, but you will receive information on your schedule during the onboarding process.

We do expect our Fellows to be present for these input and feedback sessions. However, we understand that in some cases, circumstances will keep talents from participating.

In place of formal tuition fees, EWOR takes 3% equity in companies that talents build by the end of the Ideation Fellowship. In addition, EWOR will invest up to €150K in selected start-ups at €1.0M post-money valuation cap.

Typically, there are no additional equity allocations to third parties.

EWOR may invest up to €150k in selected start-ups and connect you to our investor network.

Please note that not all fellows receive investment.

If you do not end up founding a company, EWOR will not require any equity from you.
