    Hot news: The Earthshot Prize winners 2023

    Beginning in December 2022, The Earthshot Prize embarked on a global, nine-month search for the most inspiring and innovative solutions to the greatest environmental challenges facing the planet. A global panel of 59 scientific, academic, and subject-matter experts chose this year's class of 15 Prize Finalists from more than 1,100 nominations submitted from around the world. All nominations were independently vetted by The Earthshot Prize's implementation partners at Deloitte.

    Accion Andina, GRST, WildAid Marine Program, S4S Technologies, and Boomitra are named 2023 Winners and will each receive a catalytic GBP 1 million prize to support efforts to scale their innovative climate and environmental solutions. 

    The ceremony airs globally on BBC, PBS, MultiChoice, and other international broadcast channels from Sunday 12 November.

    In addition to the Prize's investment in the five Winners, all 15 Finalists will receive mentorship, resources, and technical support from The Earthshot Prize Fellowship Programme, a year-long programme to accelerate the growth of their groundbreaking solutions.

    What a great inspiration! Have you worked with innovators in this space and what in your view are main challenges and opportunities when investing in technology disruptions?
