We wished we had this as young leaders.
Founded by YPO CEOs, the Founder Education Scholarships was inspired by the All In Podcast team and the movement they've created.
In a world where traditional media was increasingly failing to deliver honest, nuanced conversation, the All In crew showed that long-form debate among friends could tackle the biggest topics in markets, venture capital, technology, politics, and business—and make it compelling.
We wished we had this as young leaders. The ideas discussed on All In, and the conversations happening at the All In Summit, represent exactly the kind of thinking that shapes great founders and great public servants. World-class speakers, real debate, and a network of people who believe that disagreeing respectfully is how you get to better answers.
Our goal is simple: bring these ideas and opportunities to aspiring young leaders who wouldn't otherwise have access—whether they're building a company or preparing to serve their community. We want the next generation of entrepreneurs and public servants to experience firsthand that healthy debate amongst friends is still cool—and that it's how the best ideas, businesses, and policies get built.
Who should apply?
Whether you're building a business or preparing to lead in public life—if the cost of attending is what's holding you back, this is for you.
Young Founders
You're early in your journey—maybe you've launched something, maybe you're about to. You want to be in the room with people who've built companies and aren't afraid to argue about how the world works.
Curious Builders
You follow the All In Podcast. You care about markets, technology, policy, and how they connect. You want to go deeper with the people and ideas shaping the conversation.
Future Leaders
You believe that respectful debate makes everyone smarter. You want to bring the ideas and connections from the Summit back to your community and build something that matters.
Aspiring Public Servants
You want to serve your city, state, or country—and you know that understanding markets, technology, and business is essential to good governance. The Summit connects policy with practice in a way that textbooks never will.
How to apply
The application process is straightforward. We want to hear your story, not test your paperwork skills.
