Deadline:  December 3, 2018 00:00 (CET) The Global Social Venture Competition ( GSVC ) empowers the next generation of social entrepreneurs by providing them with mentoring, exposure, and over $80,000 in prizes to transform their ideas into ventures that address the world’s most pressing challenges. Teams from across the globe learn how to design scalable models through a process that emphasizes stakeholder discovery, business innovation, and social impact assessment. Who should apply? The Global Social Venture Competition seeks to support the most promising early-stage for-profit or nonprofit solutions that address the world’s most pressing social challenges using technology. Successful ventures show the highest, most integrated financial and social and/or environmental returns, demonstrating “blended value”. For the 2019 competition, all ventures must have a technology component to their venture, whether a product, hardware, software, web platform, mobile app, wireless, etc. TECHNOLOGY FOR GOOD Solutions should utilize “technology for good” in some form, whether the entire venture is focused on a technology-based solution or if the venture has some degree of a technology component built into the solution. The competition occurs over three rounds. During each round of the competition, entrant teams present the social, financial, and environmental values of their business, gaining valuable feedback from and exposure to some of the greatest minds in social innovation. Eligibility requirements for ventures Submitted ventures should aim to be: financially sustainable or profitable; whether it is a for-profit, non-profit, or hybrid business model, your venture must aim to be self-sufficient on earned revenue. Ventures should include a technology component, whether a technology-based solution or a technology component is utilized to address the solution. In this instance, technology is defined very broadly. Eligible ventures should include products and services developed from the application of scientific knowledge. This may involve software, hardware as well as other devices and products. The technology can be manifest in the product or service itself or be the way in which the product or service is delivered. Submitted ventures should be scalable long term. This criterion will mean different things for each business. Scalability will take into account the potential for growth of the business, both financially and in its social impact. Submitted ventures must have a quantifiable social and/or environmental bottom line incorporated into their mission and practices. Your entry must include a financial analysis as well as a Social Impact Assessment (SIA), including the Social Value Proposition and Social Indicators. Learn more on the SIA page of the website. Submitted ventures must be less than 2 years old (with the start of the venture marked by incorporation or first income, whichever occurred first) as of December 31, 2018. Submitted ventures may not be a wholly owned subsidiary of an existing entity (of either a for-profit or nonprofit entity). Submitted ventures must not have received more than $250,000 in funding from venture capital, private investors, grants (government or foundation), loans, or other funding sources (excluding in-kind) as of December 31, 2018. Lifetime revenue should not exceed $500,000 as of December 31, 2018. GSVC has the right to investigate funding and qualifications of ventures to assure that they are a truly early stage. Eligibility requirements for teams Your team must include a student, current or recent graduate*, from any level of higher education (undergraduate, masters level/graduate, or doctoral) in any area of study in the world; Recent Bachelor’s degree holders must have completed their degree with four (4) years of the application deadline (December 31, 2018). Recent Master’s or Doctoral level degree holders must have completed their degree within two (2) years of the application deadline (December 31, 2018). The student or recent student must be actively involved in the venture (i.e., a founder or co-founder, actively participating in the development of the business or actively working on the business). Your team should include a statement describing the student’s level of involvement. The student or recent student must be one of the team’s presenters and must be available to answer judges’ questions regarding the business in the final two rounds of the competition.

We are now accepting applicants for the 2018-2019 Scholarships for Women program. Every winner will receive A $5,000 scholarship to be used towards your educational and professional development goals. You can spend this on anything from coding bootcamps to online programming courses, textbooks, etc. One year of weekly one-on-one mentoring by a Toptal senior developer, who will help you with topics like project guidance, choosing an academic or career path, and preparing for interviews. Why are we doing this? It’s no secret that men outnumber women in the tech industry. Silicon Valley has been the subject of dozens of recent studies on the fact that there are far fewer female computer scientists, engineers, and software developers than there are male. Indeed, according to  recent figures released  by tech giants like Apple, Google, and Facebook, women make up around just 16% of the engineering workforce in the technology industry. The gap is even larger when you look at Open Source, with women making up just  6% of users on GitHub . At Toptal, we know that it makes zero difference what gender you are. We’re a 100% remote company, and we’ve never kept track of gender in our database. There have always been women in our network, and there always will be. However, study after study in the tech industry has shown that achieving greater gender diversity isn’t about ignoring diversity, it’s about actively welcoming it. This isn’t just diversity for its own sake. There are just as many profoundly talented and intelligent women in the world as there are men, and some of the best engineers at Toptal are female. However, if we lack equal female representation on our engineering teams, that means our teams are not as strong as they can be. And that’s not something we’re ok with. We will all benefit from having more talented women on our teams and in our network. Toptal is home to some of the world’s most intelligent and talented computer scientists, developers, and software engineers. Toptal’s network includes professional engineers across 93+ countries, with expertise spanning countless industries and interests. With close guidance from our community, focused training, and financial support, we believe we can empower women aspiring to become top professional software engineers. Eligibility Gender: Female Age: 13 years or older Education: any Location: This is an international contest TIMELINE We’ll be announcing one winner per month for 12 months.
