Funding Opportunity: $1.5 million Roddenberry Prize. Roddenberry Foundation. Deadline: July 12, 2024 (Letters of Intent)

Roddenberry Foundation invites LOIs for Roddenberry Prize

The Roddenberry Foundation invites letters of intent for the $1.5 million Roddenberry Prize, which supports early-stage ventures that leverage scientific breakthroughs or emerging technologies that hold the promise for a better future.
At the heart of the Roddenberry Prize is a belief that scientific and technological innovation will help us lead better, healthier, and more productive lives while helping the planet and our environment flourish. This year’s Roddenberry Prize is focused on AI and machine learning, and a grand prize of $1 million in non-dilutive financing will be granted to an early-stage venture that is using AI to improve the world. The Roddenberry Prize focuses on early-stage ventures that are ethical, world changing, AI driven, and scalable.
The prize application process will be conducted in three rounds: applicants may submit a letter of intent through July 12, 2024; a select number of applicants will be invited to submit a second-round application between August 5, 2024, and August 23, 2024; and five finalists will be invited to share their work and vision during a one-hour meeting with the foundation in October and November, 2024. One finalist will receive a $1 million grant and all finalists will be recognized publicly as “Roddenberry Prize Finalists.”

For complete program guidelines and application instructions, see the Roddenberry Foundation website.
