Support a
community of
planet-positive
innovators.

beVisioneers is a global fellowship that equips innovators aged 16 to 28 with the training, expert support and resources to bring their planet-positive projects to life.

At the core of our offering is a 12-month hybrid-learning program that focuses on the implementation of each Fellow’s project. Now in its pilot year, beVisioneers aims to train 1000 Fellows annually by 2025. Funded by a donation from Mercedes-Benz, beVisioneers provides the program free of charge to all Fellows and provides basic living and technology support for those who could not otherwise participate. Upon completing the intensive 12-month program, Fellows continue to receive support to scale their projects and develop their leadership skills.

By being a mentor you are giving back by accelerating the professional and personal development of global, motivated young environmental entrepreneurs.

“Through their journey, I’ve rediscovered the power of curiosity, resilience, and the limitless potential that exists within each of us.” – beVisioneers Mentor, Cohort 2023 – 2024
