We are less than one month away from the Venture Prize 2024 Awards Ceremony!

In anticipation of the Venture Stream Finals taking place at the start of April, we would like to introduce the Local to Global category finalists! Ventures in this category demonstrate economic viability and value in selling B2C or B2B products and services in a local geographic area. These ventures are typically not science and/or tech-focused and may not have an immediate path to scaling. Say hello to the finalists!

Good luck in the Venture Stream Finals! ️🚀
