This prestigious, fully-funded scholarship programme is intentionally designed to bridge the gap between raw artistic passion and professional sector leadership by blending local industry insights with world-class creative expertise.

Applicants should demonstrate a profound interest in arts management, leadership, and creative entrepreneurship. We welcome applications from women who are currently active in the creative industry as well as those who hold fierce professional aspirations to enter it—whether as artists, independent event organizers, or cultural administrators. Because this is an intensive, rigorous online experience, a firm commitment to participate fully in every component of the schedule is required.
