Record a 2-minute video explaining your project and attach a one-pager (like a GitHub repo, CAD file, or smart contract address) showing that you’ve already started building. Then fill out the application form on this site. You’ll hear back within 14 days.

You must be between 15 and 19 years old and building (or ready to build) in AI, Web3, or connected hardware. Preference is given to immigrant, first-gen, refugee, or resource-constrained applicants.

Applications for 2025/26 are being reviewed on a rolling basis, so there is no fixed deadline. The sooner you apply, the better!

We prioritize applicants who show real progress, not just ideas. Prototypes beat slide decks. We’re looking for grit, initiative, and momentum. If you're already shipping or experimenting, you're what we’re looking for.

Selected applicants receive a US $10,000 grant, sent directly to them (not their school). They also get monthly office hours with Kenzi and others in his network, as well as access to a private Discord for builders. If successful you will also be considered for future investment of up to US $250,000 from Symbolic Capital once you show traction.
