Opportunity Description

Are you ready to compete? The 2024 Hult Prize calls for all aspiring student entrepreneurs to enter the competition and win USD 1,000,000. The Hult Prize cycle has officially started, and we ask you to join. Whether you’re refining an existing startup or crafting a fresh venture, grape this opportunity to make a real impact.

Currently enrolled students in degree programs, aged 18 or above, forming teams of 3-5 members from the same university, with the possibility of one member from another university can apply for this opportunity.

Since 2009, the Hult Prize has sparked innovation by posing one question: How will you change the world? To mark the 15th anniversary, the organizers are breaking barriers this year. Instead of a single theme, the challenge is UNLIMITED!

What inspires, frustrates, or intrigues you? If your idea aligns with at least one of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, it’s eligible for $1 million in funding in 2024.

Joining the Hult Prize means joining a global network of over 100,000 social entrepreneurs. It’s a space for hands-on learning where you can test ideas risk-free. Plus, you’ll receive professional guidance to develop valuable business and career skills.

This year, registering for the 2024 Hult Prize competition grants access to the new Digital Learning Hub. Developed by Hult International Business School partners, it offers free educational modules on human-centered design, team building, impact measurement, and effective pitching.

Ready to embrace the challenge? Your journey to change the world begins now with the Hult Prize.
