The Global Talent Fund is a nonprofit organisation working to discover, nurture, and empower talented youth worldwide

Social venture highlights

Highly talented individuals are especially capable of advancing the knowledge frontier but from poorer countries often fail to realize their potential. A significant bottleneck is that many individuals are excluded from leading educational opportunities because of insufficient financial resources. The Global Talent Fund is working to address these problems. 

  • The Global Talent Fund's flagship scholarship programme offers up to 50 fully-paid scholarships each year to enable students to complete undergraduate degrees in maths and science at top tier universities such as Cambridge, Oxford and Imperial.
  • Global Talent Fund offers charitable grants of up to $50,000 to organisations that identify and nurture high-potential students in maths and science. 
  • Global Talent Fund also seeks to recognise exceptionally talented youth and create the opportunities they deserve to flourish.
