What is the Rising Star programme?

As representatives of many of the world’s best known humanitarians, entertainers and entrepreneurs including Sir Bob Geldof, Elle Macpherson, John Simpson, CBE and Boris Becker, talent management and speaker agency Kruger Cowne have joined with One Young World, the preeminent global forum for young leaders aged 18-30, to launch a global search for a young icon of the future and catapult them into the future of travel – upon the XCOR Lynx® Spacecraft into outer space.

What can I win?

The Rising Star programme, which launched at the One Young World Summit 2014 in Dublin, invites both One Young World Ambassadors and outstanding members of the public aged 18-35, to nominate themselves to take on the trip of a lifetime. The winner will not only embark on a once in a lifetime flight to space but will also be offered a three year management contract with Kruger Cowne to assist them with possible publishing, TV and public appearances.
