Eligibility Criteria

D-Prize challenges are open to anyone or any team. The sole restriction is that individuals and their immediate family on the judging panel may not participate as contestants.

D-Prize is also open to any business model (for-profit, non-profit, and everything in between).

You are not competing against other applicants. They typically fund at least 15 proposals per competition, regardless of which challenge track was selected.

You should have enormous ambition and can imagine yourself as a successful entrepreneur. You are ready to launch your new venture, and if a pilot proves successful, you are excited to grow it into a world-changing organization.

If you are still a student or have existing commitments, you should have a clear idea of how to transition into a full-time founder.

D-Prize is exclusively interested in ventures that will scale the distribution of an already proven poverty intervention in the developing world. They do not fund prototypes of promising new interventions.
