Description
Coefficient Giving’s Effective Giving & Careers program supports the growth of strong incubators and accelerators and the creation of new ones. It defines incubation broadly: studios, fellowships, and venture-style programs that launch or grow high-impact organizations are welcome, even if they do not provide every element of a conventional incubation program.
The initiative prioritizes highly cost-effective organizations working on global health and wellbeing, high-impact policy, economic growth, scientific progress, farm animal welfare, and global catastrophic risks. Support can strengthen idea research, founder recruitment and training, operational assistance, mentorship, and early funding. The goal is to develop a few exceptional organizations with substantial impact at scale, rather than many average ones, particularly where incubation is underused.
