O'Shaughnessy Fellowships

The O’Shaughnessy Fellowships & Grants program unites the world’s most bold and undiscovered researchers, builders, and creatives from all over the world to discover, build, and spread path-breaking ideas and supports their journey with equity-free funding of up to $100,000. O'Shaughnessy Fellows and Grantees are open-sourcing quantum computing, saving dying languages, helping the disabled in Zambia, researching brain simulations, making documentaries about the future of the human race, creating viral songs that last a 1000 years, building mechanical hands for amputees, researching data storage in plants and much much more. ​ The O’Shaughnessy Fellowships are open to individuals worldwide who are over 18 years old and possess a strong portfolio demonstrating their work. Applicants should have consistently shown initiative and proactiveness, reflecting a strong sense of personal agency. The fellowship is primarily aimed at individuals, not companies, and does not require applicants to have started a venture-scale startup.
