Overview
Acumen Academy is the community for builders grounded in moral imagination, solving problems of poverty. At Acumen Academy, we equip ambitious builders with the hard skills required to scale solutions to poverty and the harder skills of moral leadership to reimagine and build a better world.
You’ve already done what most people never start. You’ve built something that works. You’ve proven it in the lives of the people you serve. But what comes next is a different challenge.
The Southeast Asia Acumen Fellowship is for social entrepreneurs at that turning point: leaders who have built a working model, demonstrated meaningful impact, and are driven by the ambition to reach far more people, and influence the systems around them.
Over 8 months, alongside a small cohort of Southeast Asia’s most ambitious builders, you’ll strengthen your leadership. You’ll gain the clarity, courage, and judgment needed to navigate growth while staying grounded in the people and communities you serve.
And when the Fellowship ends, the journey continues. You’ll join the Foundry, Acumen’s global community of more than 2,000 social innovators across 71 countries, committed to building a world based on dignity.
