Delivered in collaboration with Stanford Online, the Fellowship equips participants with advanced innovation, venture-building, and leadership skills anchored in Silicon Valley expertise and global industry practice. Round I applications have closed, and Round II is now open until January 15, 2026. Carissa Little, Executive Director of Stanford Engineering Center for Global & Online Education, highlighted the significance of the program, noting that One League extends access to high-impact entrepreneurial education to talented individuals globally, regardless of financial means. Programme Overview The Fellowship delivers a rigorous, hands-on, one-year learning experience designed to cultivate entrepreneurial thinking and equip participants with practical, scalable tools to transform ideas into impactful ventures.

Structured mentorship from a global network of industry leaders, founders, venture capitalists, and innovation specialists.
