<h1>Student wins $100,000 award to scale AI mentorship platform aiming for one million rural learners; legal compliance needed</h1> A student from a disadvantaged background received a $100,000 international student award and announced plans to invest the prize in an AI-powered mentorship platform to scale educational and entrepreneurship training from about 20,000 beneficiaries to a target of one million rural learners. The recipient urged national adoption of entrepreneurship education in schools and was publicly lauded by state and national officials and an international education foundation that administers the prize. Legal considerations include proper use and accounting of award funds, regulatory compliance for education and ed-tech services, data protection and AI governance, contract and IP issues for platform expansion, and any tax or charitable-status implications.
