About this opportunity
100x Impact is a scale-up programme and grant for high-impact social ventures that already have a proven solution and want to reach far more people. Each selected venture joins a cohort and receives funding of up to £150,000, alongside structured support drawing on research expertise, experienced advisers and potential partners.
The programme works with advisers from the London School of Economics. Beyond the grant, the cohort's work is amplified to a global audience, which helps ventures connect with the partners, funders and attention they need to grow.
It is designed for founders whose solution is tested and ready to scale rather than an early idea looking for seed money. The programme is open worldwide with no country restriction, and applicants do not need to be based in any single country.
That keeps high-impact social ventures run by Nigerian and African founders firmly in scope.
