Alumni

Our model launches more than competitions - it launches innovative change agents. Teams that compete continue shaping the future as XPRIZE alumni long after the prize concludes. From mission-driven startups to billion-dollar unicorns, they scale solutions globally, transform industries, and lead lasting change across some of the world’s most critical challenges.
