100x, a global impact initiative based at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), is seeking bold, high-impact social ventures—both for-profit and non-profit—tackling the world’s most urgent challenges in areas such as climate, health, inequality, education, migration, and democracy.
Selected ventures will join a global community of innovators reaching more than 100 million people, including organisations like Noora Health, Wysa, and Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team. Each selected venture will receive:
£150,000 in unrestricted funding, with the potential for further catalytic capital
Access to 100x’s bespoke accelerator programme
Mentorship and insights from LSE’s global network and experts
100x supports up to 16 ventures annually, with a strong focus on emerging markets. The 2026/27 cohort will include two intakes: Autumn (September 2026) and Spring (February 2027).
Applications are open until Monday, 10 November 2025 (6:00 PM GMT). Ventures that have previously applied are welcome to reapply.
