The TED2015 Fellowship Program application is now open! Twice a year, the TED Fellows program opens applications to find a new class of extraordinary thinkers and doers. The TED Fellows program is an international fellowship program designed to nurture great ideas and help them spread around the world.
Though they target innovators aged 21 to 40, anyone over 18 years old is encouraged to apply. The TED Fellows program is looking for people who have demonstrated remarkable accomplishment.
Benefits
TED pays for round-trip economy airfare, ground transportation to and from the conference location, and meals and shared accommodation on site. TED does not cover hotel incidental expenses.
In addition to the above terms and conditions, all Fellows must comply with all terms and conditions of TED registration, as well as TED.com Terms of Use.
