• Best professionally detailed idea – (Inter)National (prize money €50,000)
• Best professionally detailed idea – Flevoland (prize money €50,000)
• Best nascent idea (prize money €20,000)Participants are individuals, i.e. entrepreneurs or employees of knowledge or education institutes, scientists, or university staff in or outside the Netherlands. The only restriction for international parties is that they collaborate with a party who resides in Flevoland, the Netherlands. The organization is willing to help you find a local partner if necessary.The entry should in any case be related to at least one of the following challenge criteria:
  • Feed, food and health
  • Reducing the transmission of infections by micro-organisms
  • Impact of emotions and behaviour on health

Cooperation (multi-disciplinary) of participants with other individuals, existing companies or other challenge organisers is an advantage, especially when there is a certain human and veterinary crossover.
