Earlier this month we announced that we were indefinitely extending our Female Founder Fellowship program, in an ongoing effort to grow the number of female technology founders by providing free Course Fees to our best female applicants. 

Earlier today we selected the most impressive Female applicants to receive the Fellowships for the semesters starting next week, including; 

 

 

  • Denver Summer 2012: Kathy Yates
  • Bogota Spring 2012: Patricia Diaz
  • Chicago Spring 2012: Reva Minkoff
  • Madrid Summer 2012: Invitation sent, awaiting acceptance!
  • Medellin Spring 2012: Invitation sent, awaiting acceptance!
 
Congratulations to the winners (and check your email if you applied)! 
 

There are still many fellowships left for the Spring and Summer Semesters! Applications deadlines are now approaching in many cities across the globe, including the following cities within the next three weeks; 

  • Chile Final Applications Due Sunday, May 13th
  • Ho Chi Minh City Final Applications Due Sunday, May 13th
  • Jakarta Final Applications Due Sunday, May 13th
  • Puerto Rico Final Application Due Sunday, May 13th
  • Silicon Valley Early Applications Due Sunday, May 13th
  • Singapore Final Applications Due Sunday, May 20th
  • Israel Final Applications Due Sunday, May 20th
 
The Institute will subsidize the Course Fee for the most extraordinary female applicant for all upcoming Founder Institute semesters.  Any female who applies to one of these semesters (including those who have applied already) is automatically eligible.
 
This is not about providing special treatment - the majority of applicants to the Founder Institute do not get accepted, and this will always be the case because we employ a quantitative Predictive Admissions Test in our application process. This test was specifically designed, and is constantly calibrated, to identify entrepreneurial personality traits and remove all forms of subjective bias. The program is simply designed to grow the number of female applicants, which will ultimately lead to more female-founded technology companies across the globe.
