A 12-week fellowship designed to help top talent attack big problems in new ways by launching products for low-income communities that are traditionally overlooked by technology. The fellowship includes a summer program that provides everything a team of early-stage social entrepreneurs might need: over $40,000 in resources, an amazing peer group of mid-career designers, developers, and entrepreneurs, unparalleled access to a pool of community collaborators for research and testing, a great mentor network, and much more. Blue Ridge Labs is looking for each participant to fill one of three roles: product, resourceful entrepreneurs who tackle big problems quickly, design, imaginative UX/UI experts who can visualize and delight, engineering, thoughtful full-stack builders who code and test with care.
