Who We Are

We aim to catalyze an economy of innovation by fostering a global community of top student entrepreneurs and change makers, driven to individual and collective action towards a better future. 

The Kairos Society is an international, student-run, not-for-profit foundation based in the United States. Kairos fosters a culture of innovation-driven entrepreneurship by engaging our diverse fellows with a variety of industry and thought leaders surrounding a wide range of global challenges.

Our seven hundred and fifty Global Fellows hail from over twenty countries across four continents and represent the most enterprising and innovative students from top universities around the world. Kairos fellows strive to develop meaningful ventures that create value for the global economy while improving the lives of billions of people around the world. In doing so, Kairos works to bridge the gaps -- between disciplines, cultures and generations -- that stifle transformative innovation.
