The application process for Social Startups ends on July 31, 2013. If you're a purpose-minded social entrepreneur, you have just under a month to come up with your idea -- or rather, flesh it out. The process itself is also just as short as the program is grounded in being able to develop the phone or web app in just under a month. More specifically, the program is for those with an idea but perhaps lack the specific technical requirements to make it happen.
Winners also receive digital market consulting and coaching. All applicants get resources on how to build the idea from scratch, specifically pertaining to social entrepreneurship.
