Earthshot Prize Singapore 2023
The Earthshot Prize will travel to Singapore later this year for its third annual Awards Ceremony which will take place on Tuesday 7 November
As a gateway to the region, Singapore exemplifies the efforts needed to fix the planet’s environmental challenges – making it the perfect location to announce our 2023 Winners. The Awards Ceremony will be held on November 7 and form part of ‘Earthshot Week’, a series of events for businesses, investors and the public to discover the remarkable solutions of our Finalists.
During the inspiring event in the heart of Singapore, the five Winners of The Earthshot Prize 2023 will be awarded a catalytic £1 million to help scale their environmental solutions. The ceremony will also feature performances by world-renowned musicians and artists.

“The Earthshot Prize is all about showing the world that solutions to some of the biggest environmental challenges we face are out there and need to be scaled. After two years of discovering impactful ideas and innovations, I am delighted that The Earthshot Prize is travelling to Singapore where the ground-breaking solutions of our 2023 Finalists will be celebrated.”

The Earthshot Prize
Founded by Prince William in 2020, The Earthshot Prize is a prestigious environmental prize which aims to discover, celebrate, accelerate and scale solutions that can help put the world firmly on a trajectory towards a stable climate, where communities, oceans and biodiversity thrive in harmony by 2030.
The five ‘Earthshots’ – simple and ambitious goals to repair our planet – are: Protect and Restore Nature, Clean our Air, Revive our Oceans, Build a Waste-free World and Fix our Climate.
Our inaugural 2021 Finalists have already driven incredible impact to repair and regenerate our planet with more than 1.5 million people benefiting directly from their solutions. Over 7,000 hectares of land and almost 2.1 million hectares of ocean have been protected or restored, while over 35,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions have been reduced, avoided or sequestered. Our 2022 Finalists, announced this past autumn, are well on their way to creating similar impact.
Earthshot Week
For the first time, the awards will be accompanied by a series of events as part of Earthshot Week. Beginning Monday 6 November, the Week will see global leaders, businesses and investors convene in Singapore to explore exciting opportunities with The Earthshot Prize Winners and Finalists, aimed at accelerating their solutions and bringing about tangible action to repair the planet. Members of the public will also be invited to experience local activations centred on the 2023 Earthshot solutions.
