The prize will award up to four prizes of at least USD 250,000 each through a competitive call for applications. Entries must be financial products focused on enabling access to tertiary education for low-income and underserved students. They must benefit directly and predominantly young people up to the age of 25 years. The solution must be based on a business model that is investible or has the potential to become investible.
