Singularity University's summer program applications are now open. The summer program is 10 weeks and fully sponsored by Google. It is for people who are interested in learning all about the latest and upcoming technologies (AI, VR, autonomous cars, digital biology, computing, networks, cyber security, Nano technology, design thinking, future forecasting etc) and using these to form start-ups to help solve big world issues. If this sounds like you, you should apply!  Made In Space, Matternet and others were formed in this program. It is a very competitive process, but it is an amazing life-changing program. Diverse candidates are encouraged to apply. 40 countries were represented and last year over 50% of the participants were women! 
Feel free to forward to friends who might be interested. The program takes place in Silicon Valley and housing is provided. The program is free to charge to participants thanks to the Google sponsorship.  Happy Thanksgiving!!

I’m excited to share that Singularity University has opened applications to GSP 2016! If you or someone you know is looking to positively change the world by pushing the boundaries of innovation, we encourage you to apply.

This is going to be a special year for GSP. We have made two enhancements that will help ensure those who participate in the program, and their projects, are successful:
  • Increased expectation from all participants that they are committed to seeing their projects through with focus and dedication after the program
  • An 8-week, post-program fortifying phase, called “Launchpad,” has been added to help transform the strongest team projects into viable companies
  • Once again, Google and our Global Impact Competition sponsors, allow all participants to be chosen based on merit
To reflect this emphasis on ensuring high-impact outcomes, we are renaming the program the “Global Solutions Program” (formerly Graduate Studies Program). GSP remains everything it is known for, and then some!

If you’re interested in joining the rarified air of our GSP alumni, please apply here.

I am personally interested in learning why you, or someone you know, would be a humanity-enhancing participant in Singularity University’s Global Solutions Program.

Sincerely,

Nicholas Haan
Managing Director, Global Solutions Program
Singularity University

Many GSP team projects have gone on to great success and impact
