Overview

The VV Venture – AI for Impact Program is a 6-month virtual global program (July–December 2026) designed for women purpose-driven entrepreneurs to advance their leadership and AI knowledge. Participants gain access to the Vital Voices Leadership Journey curriculum — built on 25+ years of global leadership experience — alongside practical AI training to optimize operations, enhance customer engagement, and improve decision-making. They also join a cohort of 35 women social entrepreneurs and, upon completion, the broader Vital Voices Global Network of 49,000 changemakers across 195 countries.  

The program unfolds in two phases. Phase 1 (July–September) focuses on the Vital Voices Leadership Journey, where participants deepen core leadership practices through dynamic sessions, small-group discussions, and guest speakers. Phase 2 (October–December) shifts to hands-on AI learning, alternating between expert-led AI Workshops and Makers Space sessions where participants apply tools directly to their own ventures through experimentation and peer collaboration. 

Applications are due May 21, 2026. Learn more and apply to the VV Venture – AI for Impact Program using this link.
