D-Prize Challenge for Entrepreneurs

What:

D-Prize is for aspiring entrepreneurs from anywhere in the world, of any age, and of any background. You must be an ambitious leader ready to grow your company/NGO for years to come. D-Prize is dedicated toward expanding access to poverty-alleviation solutions in the developing world. Many solutions to poverty already exist; the challenge is distributing these solutions to the people who need it most. We tackle this by challenging social entrepreneurs to develop better ways to distribute proven life-enhancing technologies, and funding early-stage startups that deliver the best results. FIRST ROUND Submit a resume and concept note by Dec 15 (early deadline), Dec 29 (regular deadline), or Jan 8 (limited extension). Early submissions encouraged. SECOND ROUND The top 5% of entrepreneurs will be invited to submit a full 10 page proposal. Full plans are due within four weeks of being invited to submit. FINAL ROUND The top entrepreneurs will interview with judges. Winners will receive up to $20,000, mentorship, and other support as you launch. GET STARTED Launch your pilot. Spend the next three months using all of your talent to start a venture to help millions of people.
