Fellows are based at a host institution and carefully partnered with a leading specialist
who will act as a mentor. In addition, fellows spend a substantial part of their time in
contact with relevant organisations outside their host institutions, to gain practical
experience in their fields.
The fellowships are awarded to professionals active in the business, public or non-
profit sectors. A binational selection committee looks for fellows who show potential
as leaders and opinion formers in their chosen fields. Fellows are selected also for
their ability to put the experience and professional expertise gained from their
fellowship into effective use.
