Institute

The OneBeat Institute is an exchange program designed to provide a space for creative entrepreneurs in the OneBeat network to grow, learn and strengthen the creative ecosystems in their home countries through project tailored mentorship. OneBeat Alumni and their community partners are invited to attend an intensive 2-week residency to clarify their enterprise’s strategic vision, refine curriculum, develop their project-specific business and multi-year plans, and map out funding goals. During the Institute, Fellows share their work, participate in creative exercises to develop new ideas, and receive professional and peer to peer mentorship with leading U.S. based mentors from across business, arts, culture, technology, and education sectors.
