About Prince Daniel's Fellowship

"Young entrepreneurs are our future. It is through their ideas, courage and desire to change that the society of tomorrow takes shape."

H.R.H Prince Daniel

Prince Daniel's Fellowship was established in 2013, in response to the fact that many young people today refrain from starting up businesses due to the fear of failure.

Our vision is to contribute to a supportive culture for entrepreneurship and a permissive attitude towards risk-taking and failure. The goal is for more young people to dare take the step of starting their own business, and to promote the development and growth among young entrepreneurs.
