Global Arts Prize for Innovation (GAP) by Global Leaders Institute
by Global Leaders Institute
Global Arts Prize for Innovation recognizing ventures redefining culture's contemporary significance.
Global Leaders Institute (GLI) is an academic institution headquartered in Washington, DC, founded in 2013. It runs as an executive graduate school at the meeting point of arts, innovation, and social entrepreneurship, offering specialised MBA programmes that prepare leaders to build ventures where creative industries and social impact overlap, blending business education with arts management, cultural enterprise, and community-driven innovation for a global cohort.
Within the wider ecosystem, GLI produces graduates who launch creative and social enterprises, occupying a niche that most business schools, focused on technology or finance, leave open. It readies founders for ventures in performing and visual arts, cultural tourism, media, and community development, with a consistent impact-first lens, and its global student body builds cross-border networks for international collaboration and market access. Its flagship MBA in Arts Innovation covers venture creation, fundraising, marketing, financial management, and impact measurement within an arts-and-culture context, supplemented by executive education, leadership workshops, networking events, and experiential learning where students develop real business plans for creative ventures.
Arts professionals, cultural entrepreneurs, and social-enterprise founders wanting to formalise their business skills benefit most, particularly people in creative industries moving from practitioner to founder or organisational leader, along with international students building creative enterprises with global reach. It is online at globalleadersinstitute.org.
