With the full guest speaker and panel line-up for the event set, we are happy to announce our theme for this year’s event: Enduring Impact. As we celebrate the designs of this year’s participants we also look back at the last 6 years of the Challenge, the impact that it has had on previous participants, and how the competition helped developed them in their careers in the clean energy sector.
Taking place on World Refrigeration Day, the Grand Final will reflect on both the legacy of the Challenge for its participants and the off-grid appliance sector, as well as highlighting the importance of innovation in cooling.
Our keynote speech will come from Leo Blyth, Senior Energy Consultant at The World Bank. Leo will be reflecting on the value of opportunity, drawing on his own path as a student innovator. He’ll share lessons from bringing appliances to market in East Africa and insights from cooling-based grantees of the Efficiency for Access Research and Development Fund, as well as highlighting how failure fuels innovation.
The event will also feature a panel discussion with several Challenge alumni students discussing the impact the competition had on their careers, as well as our annual prizegiving, where we will be crowning our Bronze, Silver, Gold and People’s Prize winners!
