2012 Thiel Fellowships for Youth Innovators – Call for Applications


The future will not take care of itself. Global prosperity is not inevitable. The world will only get better if visionary people are creative and relentless about solving hard problems.

The 2011 class of Thiel Fellows includes 24 people who are tackling breakthroughs in hardware and robotics, making energy plentiful, making markets more effective, challenging the notion that there is only one way to get an education, and extending the human lifespan. Several of them have already launched companies, secured financing, and won prestigious awards. As they're demonstrating, you don't need college to invent the future.

If you're under twenty and love science or technology, consider joining the 2012 class of fellows.
