W e are really excited to announce the 2023 Beacon Fellowship programme!

If you are a young professional with a science, engineering or economics degree with strong views on topics you are passionate about and keen to share these with the tech and entrepreneurial community, read on!

The 2023 Beacon Fellowship is an opportunity for you to research, debate fiercely, co-author and publish an opinion piece that can help the entire startup ecosystem. It could be a review of an emerging tech; or a significant market and geo-political event which you believe will alter the course of the tech ecosystem. The more controversial and original your view-point, the better!

The project runs typically over 12-weeks, it’s flexible — does not interfere with your day job! — and remote, aimed at young professionals across Europe (and beyond!). While there is no monetary remuneration, both parties, you and the Beacon team, are investing time and resources to develop a view-point and share it with the wider community hoping to spark a debate, engage with, and benefit everyone in the ecosystem. Beyond the satisfaction we will both get from contributing to the entrepreneurial ecosystem, we want you to come away from this experience with a new set of skills along with fresh perspectives and ideas which you can use in real world applications.
