EcoLaunch is committed to a future where everyone can build Nature-based Enterprises, regardless of their financial situation or where they live. If you’re passionate about regenerative business and ecological restoration but need some assistance to join, our Scholarship Program is here to help. Below, you’ll find a range of scholarship tiers designed to make EcoLaunch more accessible while maintaining our program’s premium quality.
We believe that the global challenges facing biodiversity and ecosystems call for a diverse range of leaders, innovators, and entrepreneurs. Some of the greatest ideas emerge from places where resources are scarce. We don’t want financial constraints to stop anyone from creating impact.
EcoLaunch invests countless hours to deliver 27 live sessions across 35 weeks, 80 hours of online content, and the expertise of 80 global professionals. Your contribution—whether at full price or a discounted tier—helps us expand our reach and continue championing solutions that restore Nature and uplift communities.
Below are our five tiers. Please review and select the one that best matches your situation when you apply.
Tier A – 20% Discount: “Pre-Breakeven Ventures”
If your enterprise is generating revenue but hasn’t yet turned a profit, you qualify for a 20% discount. This tier eases the financial burden for ventures on the cusp of sustainability.
Tier B – 40% Discount: “Pre-Revenue Ventures”
Still in the idea or prototype stage with little or no revenue? This 40% discount helps early-stage teams invest in their vision without overstretching their resources.
Tier C – 60% Discount: “Low-Income Individuals (Developed Countries)”
For those who reside in high-income countries (e.g., Australia, Europe, North America) but have limited personal finances (unemployment, underemployment, or otherwise). We want you here, even if you’re going through a challenging financial period.
Tier D – 80% Discount: “Emerging & Lower-Middle-Income Economies”
For applicants from countries with significantly lower per capita income than wealthier nations, but who do not fall under the Least Developed Countries category. This tier bridges the affordability gap for a wide array of global entrepreneurs.
Tier E – 100% Discount: “Least Developed Countries”
We fully waive the program fee for individuals residing in a country classified by the UN as a Least Developed Country (LDC). This ensures that in places where resources are most limited, talented innovators still have a chance to join.
For participants in Australia: AUD $1,750 + 10% GST = AUD $1,925
For participants outside Australia: AUD $1,750 (no GST applies)
