10th Anniversary Global Challenge

Celebrating a decade of impact

To mark 10 years of Solve, we’re launching a special 10th Anniversary Global Challenge.

Ten of the best, boldest, brightest ideas propelling us into the next decade of impact will be selected and recognized on stage at Solve Challenge Finals in New York City. Each winner will receive prize funding, along with access to Solve’s global network of funders, partners, and advisors.

Are you leading a solution that’s ready for its next chapter of scale?

Ten years ago, we launched Solve on a simple bet: the best solutions to global challenges are out there —and it’s our job to find them, fund them, and help them scale. 

Since then, the world has been reshaped. A pandemic exposed brittle systems, climate impacts are a daily reality, trust has eroded, and AI has both expanded what’s possible and raised questions about gaps in equity, power, access, and opportunity. In this new era, it is all the more urgent to close those gaps through innovation that scales, with broad adoption, wide distribution, and durability. 

Over the past decade, Solve has become a global engine for that kind of innovation. We have launched over 100 challenges for which selected innovators, Solvers, have gone on to reach over 370 million lives and raise $1.1 billion to scale their impact. Solvers are our best bet in making a better future for all, and this year we’re doubling down on our support.
