E2 1 Hotels Fellowship for Advocacy Entrepreneurs 2027
Applications are open for the E2 1 Hotels Fellowship 2027. This program blends business strategy with environmental advocacy work. E2 seeks “advocacy entrepreneurs” who understand economic climate action. Additionally, E2 provides capital, credibility, and strategic guidance. Fellows tackle systemic hurdles across clean energy or agriculture. The program prioritizes projects that keep growth equitable.
This fellowship runs twelve months, starting January 2027. It operates virtually and flexibly, much like an incubator. Fellows gain entrepreneurial independence backed by institutional business support.
Who E2 Is Looking For
The program seeks strategists, not just traditional advocates. Ideal candidates include founders, researchers, and community organizers. Furthermore, they should have a deep understanding of a pressing social or environmental issue. Their project should shift advocacy through communication, research, or organizing. Unlike typical accelerators, E2 focuses on “advocacy-market fit.”

- $10,000 project grant to launch your initiative
- Direct mentorship from E2’s national business network
- Access to nonmarket strategy and advocacy expertise
- Inclusion in the E2 Emerging Leaders Program

How to Apply
Submit your application through E2’s official portal online. Include a resume and detailed project pitch. Outline the advocacy hurdle and your proposed solution. Add a 12-month implementation roadmap to your proposal. A letter of support from a partner organization helps strengthen it.
