AMAZN HQ Fellowship Program
FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM APPLICATION
The application deadline for Cohort #1 of the Fellowship Program is NOVEMBER 21.
In Dec. 2019, AMAZN HQ was founded with a simple mission – to serve as THE PLATFORM for Asians and Asian Americans in sports. Over the past four years, we’ve been able to build a passionate audience base of nearly 150,000 across social media platforms. We’ve hosted All-Star Showcases bringing together North America’s best athletes. We’ve partnered with America’s biggest sports leagues like the NFL and NBA. And most importantly, we’ve begun to rewrite the narrative of what it means to be an Asian athlete.
Now, we want to help build the next generation of Asian & Asian American content creators, journalists, and marketers through our first-ever AMAZN HQ Fellowship Program.
