Run with the United Nations Office for Partnerships, the programme is less a prize than a year of scaffolding: a €20,000 grant paired with one-to-one mentorship, masterclasses, introductions into industry networks and access to events, ending in a graduation in September 2028. Past cohorts have come from 92 countries, and the announcement trip and event in London in autumn 2027 is part of the package. For a designer or artist in the first years of a practice built around sustainability, the combination of unrestricted money and structured mentorship is unusual.
