Summary
This opportunity offers cash awards of $50,000 each aimed at recognizing and supporting emerging to mid-career immigrant professionals in the United States who have already shown significant early-career achievement. It covers three areas: biomedical science, fashion and design, and fashion and culture. In each of these categories, multiple awards are given, making for a total of nine awards.
