Do you know you can win a cool $20000 in the D-Prize 2023 Global Competition for Entrepreneurs for your business? Keep reading as we release this amazing secret in this post.
The D-Prize is seeking businesspeople who can create a brand-new nonprofit or social enterprise that offers an existing poverty solution to thousands, perhaps even millions, of people.
We have included more than a dozen goods and services that are thought to reduce poverty. Entrepreneurs are now tasked with coming up with strategies for distributing to those in need.
They want to give up to $20000 in seed money to 30+ teams this year so that they can each start a pilot and test their new enterprise ideas.
