Selection process

The selection process for the Enlight Fellowship is multi-stage and highly competitive. Initially, an Admissions Committee rigorously evaluates all online applications. This committee comprises experts from the Watson Institute and the broader entrepreneurial ecosystem, who assess candidates based on the innovation of their solutions, the scalability of their ventures, and their demonstrated potential for creating significant impact in youth mental wellbeing. Special attention is given to the clarity of their vision and their commitment to the program's objectives. Shortlisted candidates proceed to an interview round, typically a 20-minute Zoom conversation. During this interview, candidates present their entrepreneurial journey, detail their venture's growth strategy, and explain how the fellowship aligns with their personal and professional development goals. The final selection is based on a holistic assessment of the application, interview performance, and alignment with the fellowship's mission to support impactful leaders.
