The Earthshot Prize Innovation Camp is designed for 50 innovators reflecting the richness and diversity of The Earthshot Prize’s climate portfolio.
Throughout the day-long programme, these innovators will connect with experts, investors, and business leaders to scale and accelerate capital towards transformative climate solutions. The sessions in the day will include skill-building, and networking opportunities.
The Earthshot Prize was launched by Prince William in 2020 to search for and scale the most innovative solutions to the world’s greatest environmental challenges.
Prince William created it to tackle “some of the world’s greatest environmental challenges” after believing the earth had reached a “tipping point” as the Prince previously explained to Sir David Attenborough.
