In partnership with @LongJourneyVC 

Read on for more info!

Inflection Grants provide $2,000 for creative builders to turn unusual ideas into reality. 

We focus on turning points where a small push can make a big difference, backing builders early on the long journey to building something great.

Edge City convenes people working at the frontiers of tech, science, and society in popup villages across the globe. Apply to our upcoming popup village: https://www.edgeesmeralda.com/ 

For the Edge City Fellowship, fellows spend a month co-living and co-building with the world’s most impactful innovators. 

You get: 
1) A full ride to one of Edge City’s pop-up villages this year. 
2) Access to and mentorship from the Edge City Community.

First fellowship cohort applications are due April 1st. Inflection grants are reviewed rolling.
