The Delta Residency invites creators, tech founders, designers, coders, and social innovators from around the world to apply for a fully funded opportunity to turn their vision into real-world impact — right in the heart of San Francisco, USA.
This is not your average program. It’s a launchpad for dreamers who do — those who are driven, restless, and ready to build something meaningful. Whether you’re a student, freelancer, activist, or self-taught creator, this residency is your chance to take action and be surrounded by a global community of innovators just like you.
Program Format
The journey begins with a 3-week online sprint (July 21 – August 10, 2025), structured for progress with:
- One weekly deliverable to keep you moving forward
- Optional weekly learning sessions
- Flexibility — whether you have 1 hour a week or 100
Participants who make serious progress during the sprint may be selected for the next stage:
a fully funded 3-month residency in San Francisco, running September to November 2025.
What the Residency Covers
If selected for the in-person phase in San Francisco, you’ll receive:
- Free round-trip flights to the U.S.
- Accommodation in a shared creator house
- All meals covered
- Visa support for international applicants
- Mentorship, workshops, and community support
- Access to an inspiring network of founders, creators, and investors
Past guest mentors have included Sam Altman, among others — this is your chance to plug into a world-class ecosystem.
