Join us the evening of July 31st at our culminating event of the year: The World's First Unreasonable Global Summit.

At the Summit we will be giving each of our 22 entrepreneurs 6 minutes on stage to prove to the world that their venture is worthy of the resources needed to define progress in our time

1st Episode is launched!

We are proud to announce the launch of the world’s most unreasonable web series – Unreasonable TV! Each week, we’ll release online episodes that document what happens at the Unreasonable Institute. Through these episodes, we welcome you inside the walls of the Mansion to witness the trials and tribulations of the Unreasonable Fellows as they work to create ventures that shape the course of history.

Unreasonable Entrepreneurs Announced!

25 Proven entrepreneurs working on ventures in 17 countries and hailing from 6 continents have been selected to attend the Unreasonable Institute this summer! The collective effort of over 3,000 people from 130 countries, who contributed $162,500 to our Fellows on the marketplace resulted in the funding and selection of our entrepreneurs.

What we do

We unite up to 25 high-impact social entrepreneurs from around the world to attend our intensive 10-week summer institute. There, we will incubate their ventures with rigorous skill training and expert mentorship. At the end of the ten weeks, we will connect our Fellows with the start-up capital and global network of support needed to give their ventures wings.

Unreasonable Entrepreneurs
We are looking for the world's most unreasonable, bold, and relentlessly determined young social entrepreneurs.

Unreasonable Ventures
All ventures must effectively address a social or environmental issue, be financially self-sustaining within 1 year, have a model which can be scaled out of the country of origin within 3 years, and must eventually meet the needs of at least 1 million people.

Entrepreneurs = Investors?

First Light Ventures has committed $150,000 to establish the Unreasonable Village Fund. This fund will be exclusively dedicated to the entrepreneurs in our 2010 Institute and will give them the ability to invest in one another's ventures. Inspired by village banking models used in microfinance, this fund will test a hypothesis that entrepreneurs, working together and providing support to one another, will make highly intelligent investments in one another’s companies.
