Who is the intended audience?

Our programs are designed for driven young people who want to dedicate themselves to addressing critical global challenges. We support potential startup founders, even those who don't yet realize their entrepreneurial path, by providing the necessary skills, mindset, and support for ambitious projects with global impact. We encourage each of our Fellows to establish a "startup city" – an immersive campus focused on education and open enterprise development – to serve as a local hub for promoting open society by building infrastructure for universal basic assets. Our overarching goal is to foster widespread replication of this model, shifting the global economy from one of artificial scarcity to one of abundance through open innovation and freedom.

Is 4 years enough?

Four years is just the beginning of a lifelong learning journey. Following the OSE Fellowship, OSE is developing graduate-level programs to provide continuing education in open economic development, with the goal of creating startup cities that offer universal basic assets.

Are you an accelerator?

We accelerate the open-source economy by empowering entrepreneurs to establish new open-access campuses worldwide. Through a "train-the-trainers" model, these entrepreneurs create startup cities that educate additional Apprentices and Fellows, and foster the development of open enterprises that promote universal basic assets.
