Winners will receive investment from the Unity Charitable Grant which has been increased to $600,000. Funding will support the development of projects, building working prototypes, as well as marketing and distribution. Submissions were chosen based on how they "address global challenges aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals" in addition to "vision, impact, inclusion, and viability".
