Innovation Month: Fletcher D-Prize Launch
Join us to learn about the Fletcher D-Prize, a competition that funds entrepreneurs who increase access to proven poverty interventions. The world has already invented ways to end poverty, yet the best interventions are not being distributed at mass-scale. Can you design a business or NGO that solves one of the Distribution Challenges like education or agriculture? If selected, The Fletcher D-Prize will award you up to $20,000 in cash to launch a pilot in any region where extreme poverty exists.
The Fletcher D-Prize is open to all Fletcher students, alumni, and Tufts undergraduates. In order to participate, at least one member of the team either be a current student of The Fletcher School or a Tufts University Fletcher Business Certificate undergraduate student.
This event is hosted by the Fletcher School in collaboration with Derby Entrepreneurship Center.
