What will you win?
Prize funds will be awarded for winning project in amounts of £5,000, £10,000 or £15,000. Each application must specify the amount they require and how the funding will be used within the project.

What is the process?
The selected student group will, with the support of academics, develop a submission for the 20th June 2022. The submission will be in the form of a written application and a 2 minute video pitch of their idea.
This submission (one of 21 invited submissions) will be assessed in late June and if successful, the proposed project will be implemented by the student team between July and December 2022.
