ICG Scholarship Fund 2026/2027:
Supporting students in turning potential into opportunity.
The Social Impact Alliance for Central & Eastern Europe, together with ICG (International Consulting Group), is launching the second edition of the ICG Scholarship Fund — a programme supporting the educational and professional development of ambitious students in Poland.
The first edition of the programme supported 19 students with scholarships worth more than PLN 180,000 in total, helping them pursue their educational and professional goals.
This year, the Fund continues to invest in the next generation of talent, with a particular focus on students at its key academic partners, SGH Warsaw School of Economics and Kozminski University. The programme is open to 2nd- and 3rd-year bachelor’s students at Polish universities, studying Economics, Finance, Accounting or related fields.
Financial support, with development at its core
The scholarship is designed to help students access opportunities that can contribute to their academic, professional and personal development. The programme goes beyond financial support, selected scholars will also take part in the Scholar Cultivation Program. That is six-month development journey focused on mentoring, learning, community-building and personal growth. Through mentoring sessions, workshops and networking opportunities, participants will have the chance to strengthen the skills, relationships and confidence they need to take the next steps in their careers.
At the heart of the programme is a simple belief: talent grows when it has access to opportunity.
“Through the ICG Scholarship Fund, we want to create opportunities for young people to develop their potential — academically, professionally and personally. Investing in the next generation of talent is an investment in the future of our region.”
