The Savvy Prize is back for the second year. Savvy is calling all entrepreneurs from around the world, with high-impact for-profit or non-profit projects, to apply for the Savvy Prize 2023 for Impact-Driven Entrepreneurs, which seeks to recognize and support the efforts of impact-driven entrepreneurs working to solve some of the world’s most pressing problems through innovative and sustainable ways.
Aside from the recognition, the Prize comes with a lot of benefits including up to $3,000 in cash prizes, product development support, and marketing endeavors. To be eligible to apply for the Savvy Prize 2023 for Impact-Driven Entrepreneurs, you have to be a Savvy Fellow first.

Savvy Fellows can immediately apply for the Savvy Prize.
