At the Elon Action Fund, we support bold, forward-thinking initiatives that have the potential to solve real-world problems, scale globally, and shape a more equitable, sustainable future. Our funding priorities are designed to empower changemakers who are not just imagining better solutions — but building them.
We fund projects that aim to revolutionize how the world generates, stores, and consumes energy. From solar innovation to carbon capture, our goal is to back technologies and models that reduce environmental impact and drive climate resilience. The future depends on clean, reliable energy. We support innovations that accelerate the transition to a low-carbon economy.
We support initiatives that bring digital tools, connectivity, and tech education to underserved communities. This includes rural broadband access, coding education, and hardware for schools and nonprofits. Technology is a bridge — or a barrier. We believe everyone deserves access to the tools that enable opportunity.
We fund responsible and ethical AI projects that address real-world issues — from health and disaster response to education and accessibility. AI has the power to solve complex problems, but only when guided by human-centered values. We invest in AI that benefits all, not just a few.
We invest in early-stage founders and ventures that are creating scalable, impact-driven solutions. Special consideration is given to underrepresented entrepreneurs and community-rooted innovations. Diverse ideas and leaders create stronger solutions. We fund those bold enough to build what the world needs next.
We fund alternative education models and platforms that prioritize critical thinking, creativity, and skills for the 21st century. This includes STEM programs, digital learning, and upskilling initiatives. The world is changing fast. Learning must evolve with it — and education must be accessible, flexible, and deeply relevant.
We support efforts that improve access to care, enhance mental well-being, and use technology to tackle health inequities around the globe. A healthier world is a more resilient world. We invest in ideas that protect and uplift human lives.
The Elon Action Fund exists to champion bold ideas and the people courageous enough to pursue them. What we fund reflects what we believe — that innovation must serve humanity, that opportunity should be universal, and that real impact is built at the intersection of vision and action.
We’re not just investing in projects. We’re investing in a better future — one where technology uplifts, communities thrive, and progress is shared by all. If you’re building something that matters, we want to hear from you.
