They do this through creating a network of talented entrepreneurs, investors, mentors, and partners who share a common vision of innovation. Their purpose is "to unite and resource the people most likely to put a dent in our biggest problems.” They aim to achieve this by recruiting globally and sponsor teams through a crowdfunding platform. This allows individuals from various socioeconomic backgrounds to connect and get involved. Bridging this socioeconomic gap allows the organization to recruit many brilliant and diverse minds together to tackle difficult problems. They currently have had teams representing 37 countries and have opened their institute in Mexico (Aguascalientes, Mexico) and East Africa (Kampala, Uganda)</span></span>'''

<font color="#000000" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"</span></font><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial;">Uncharted solves global issues, including Cities & Urbanization, Economic Enpowerment, Education, Environmental Sustainability, Healthcare, and Justice & Civil Liberties. After first identifying problems within a local, global, or national scale, they connect entrepreneurs currently working on the issue with mentors. These mentors may include, but are not limited to, lawyers, leaders in their field, CEOs, and many more. Then entrepreneurs go through a 6-18 month "Bootcamp" where they have the opportunity to address their issue and obtain measureable outcomes. The Uncharted Team and Board are also involved in the process.</span>
