The Democracy Tech Entrepreneur Fellowship Claimed

Making technology work for democracy is the defining challenge of our time. Election interference on social media, disinformation, deep fakes, surveillance, and illicit facial recognition are all dangers to democracy from the wrong uses of technology.

Our fellowship is established against this backdrop with an aim to support tech entrepreneurs with innovative solutions to democracies' problems. We recognize the need to build from the bottom up, while bringing out what the free world does best: innovation, entrepreneurship and new ideas.

The fellowship is driven by three key elements; collective learning through online masterclasses, 1:1 mentoring sessions by experienced founders, and building strong networks among democracy tech activists & entrepreneurs.

At the final stage of the Fellowship program, the participants pitch their projects at the Copenhagen Democracy Summit, in front of a crowd of 700+ political & business leaders.
