It’s the EIGHTH year for our “New Face of Tech” Scholarship Program — an incredible collaboration between 1,000 Dreams Fund and HARMAN that supports women pursuing a career in the tech world. Our goal is to help women early in their careers, and in doing so, help level the playing field for women in the tech space.

And we have BIG news! This year, New Face of Tech is expanding to include international students! We’ll be awarding 50 scholarships in total to both U.S. and international students!

This program is open to all career pathways in tech — from budding young musicians and music producers to documentarians and engineers — so don’t click away just because you’re not pursuing a computer science degree. We encourage all women with big dreams in S.T.E.A.M. (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics) to apply! 

Each of our 50 New Face of Tech Scholarship Winners will receive:

• $1,500 scholarship to support educational goals
• Career coaching sessions with HARMAN executives as part of 1,000 Dreams Fund’s MentorHER program
• An amazing JBL product*
• Featured profile on 1,000 Dreams Fund’s website and social media

Curious who has been recognized as a New Face of Tech? You can meet all of our 2023 New Face of Tech winners here. 

The five-week challenge starts on October 9, 2024 and goes through November 22, 2024 — and is available to all women and femmes ages 18 and older.  Winners will be announced on 1,000 Dreams Fund social media accounts the week of November 25, 2024.

It’s so easy to enter! Just head over to our New Face of Tech Challenge page where you will be asked to submit a photo and answer just a few questions that showcase your talent along with your commitment and interest in tech as a career.
