FAQ
Does my team have to include only women to apply?
Applicants must have women on their team. The team does not have to be all women.
What happens once my application is submitted?
Once your team has applied, you will receive a confirmation email. We will reach out to schedule an interview after your application is reviewed.
Can I apply for grants from multiple phases?
You can only participate in one phase at a time. If you or your team has received money from phase one, your team must complete all milestones before applying for an additional phase.
How many steps are there in the process?
There are three steps to evaluating applications. After applying, potential candidates will move through three evaluation stages: Sperax scoring, community poll and Sperax LIFTED Committee interview. Applicants will be notified if they have moved on from one round to the next, with the final decision being made after all of the candidates’ Sperax LIFTED Committee interviews.
