Call for Applications to Join the Ampion Venture Bus

ampion

AMPION is a catalyst for entrepreneurship and innovation in the emerging world. We empower entrepreneurial minds to become successful change-makers in their communities and boost private sector growth for development.

We bring together entrepreneurial minds from the fields of IT, design and business who join our 5 day bus tours from around the world. Teams self-organize around exciting ideas for new ventures, and work hard to launch a business and pitch it to a jury of experts and investors at a grand finale.

 

Business people, designers and coders – we want you!

We’re looking for the best candidates to fill our buses this year. If you are passionate about developing new ideas or creating new businesses, this is the perfect trip. Spend a week with other incredible creators looking to build something great as part of a brilliant road trip.

Being an Ampioneer means you can collaborate with people with skills you don’t have. Have a great idea but lack the technical ability to get it done? Meet coders. Have you developed a great product but don’t know how to take it to market? Meet entrepreneurs. Wish you could present a beautiful business idea with the style it deserves? Meet designers.

Start a successful business with Ampion. Apply now.
