The Earthshot Prize and Bloomberg Philanthropies announced a special event taking place in New York City September 21, 2022. The Earthshot Prize Innovation Summit will include winners and finalists of the 2021 Prize along with leaders and philanthropists from around the world. Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg are teaming up to speak at the event, per People.

According to The Earthshot Prize, the Summit’s purpose is “to drive impact around systems-changing climate solutions and amplify The Earthshot Prize’s call to accelerate progress to repair our planet through collaboration and bold innovation.”

As Global Advisor to the Winners of The Earthshot Prize, Bloomberg works with award recipients so their solutions can have the biggest possible impact. “Accelerating the world’s climate progress requires us to take urgent, ambitious action from every angle,” Bloomberg, who is also the UN Secretary-General’s Special Envoy on Climate Ambition and Solutions, said. “As global leaders get set to gather in New York, the Bloomberg team is working with our partners Prince William and The Earthshot Prize to showcase the most innovative climate solutions and help them spread more quickly.”

Just like the ambitious “Moonshot” challenge, The Earthshot Prize aims at creating a lasting positive impact. While only five ideas get the prize money each year, both winners and finalists are partnered with investors and organizations to assist them in developing their solutions, per USA Today.
