Amount

GIVEN: an equity investment whose size varies by programme; the LatAm programme is stated at USD 300,000. TAKEN: an equity stake, and historically 500 also charged a programme fee deducted from the investment, meaning net cash received is less than the headline. Terms differ per programme (USA Flagship, Sustainable Innovation, 500 LatAm, Eurasia, Sanabil MENA, Egypt, Japan J-StarX, Korea IBK Changgong). Confirm the exact investment, equity and fee on the specific programme page before applying.
