RISE Fellowship Program
We welcome you to learn more about our work with each of the RISE fellows by clicking on their logos below.
The goal of the RISE program is to support the scale-up of for-profit companies and non-profit organizations that are addressing challenges of national development in innovative, entrepreneurial, and sustainable ways.
In 2014, RISE launched its first flagship program, a 2-year fellowship for growth-stage social enterprises. In 2017, RISE Egypt graduated its 1st class of RISE Fellows, a significant milestone in our journey. The RISE Fellows continue on as part of the RISE family, co-creating what will be the RISE Alumni Fellows, and learn what it will mean to pay it forward to the next classes and next generations of social impact leaders in Egypt. The positive footprint RISE leaves on the world is closely linked to the positive impact of each of the social enterprises with which we have worked, and it was an honor to kick off our work in Egypt with these amazing entrepreneurs. Beyond innovative leaders, they are wonderful human beings, and we value the deep character, commitment, honesty, and resilience each and every one of our fellows brings to our community and to Egypt.
