Selected by a distinguished jury of business leaders, academics, and innovators, the ZSP50 will form a national index of excellence — recognizing the builders and thinkers turning ideas into impact, one person at a time.
Eligibility & Requirements
The program is seeking individuals who embody the spirit of independence, innovation, and impact — entrepreneurs operating on their own, without full-time employees, across sectors including:
Technology & SaaS
Creative & Design
Wellness & Lifestyle
Social Impact & Community
Professional Services
Education, Media, and more
A solopreneur may be a content creator, inventor, consultant, coach, or independent designer — anyone building a business of one with big ambition.
For this program, the solopreneur should be the only full-time employee in their operations, though working with contractors or partners is absolutely welcomed.
