2 SELECT
Our selection process begins in each
local market and culminates in our
International Selection Panels (ISPs),
held throughout the year in different cities
around the world. Historically, fewer than
5% of candidates who enter the initial
selection process move onto an ISP.
Endeavor's selection process is also a
service to entrepreneurs we screen,
where transformational conversations
with preeminent business leaders push
candidates to reflect and answer tough
questions about their business models,
team strength, and future growth plans.
Here's a snapshot of how the process
unfolded from Jan. 2018 – Sep. 2019.
