Quote:
Google, a long-time supporter of Singularity University (SU), has
agreed to a two-year, $3 million contribution to SU's flagship
Graduate Studies Program (GSP). Google will become the program's title
sponsor and ensure all successful direct applicants get the chance to
attend free of charge.

Under the new agreement, Google will provide $1.5 million a year over
the next two years. The funding covers the cost to attend for half of
the 80 annual GSP participants. The other half, winners of SU's Global
Impact Competitions, will continue to be offered a free spot at the
program as well.
