The Earthshot Prize is designed to incentivize change and help to repair our planet over the next ten years. Five, one-million-pound prizes will be awarded each year between 2021 and 2030, providing at least 50 solutions to the world’s greatest environmental problems by 2030. MIT is an official nominator and requests submissions for solutions that are beyond the idea stage, have working prototypes or executed pilots that demonstrate the effectiveness of their solution, have been tested in-field or with a target audience, and may already be in the market with “customers” or audiences but to a limited scale. If you have questions regarding this opportunity, please contact Research Development.
