GET INVOLVED

The X PRIZE Foundation's strategy for fostering innovation is unique. Rather than awarding money to honor past achievements or directly funding research, the X PRIZE Foundation creates high profile prize competitions that attract and motivate innovative thinkers to create radical breakthroughs on important challenges facing humanity.

The X PRIZE Foundation started by raising seed capital of $2.5 million. This was then leveraged into the $10 million Ansari X PRIZE which, in turn, netted $100 million worth of investments dedicated to solving the prize's challenge. We call this leverage the X factor.

Imagine the impact that you can have by supporting the X PRIZE Foundation. Help us unlock the power of innovation and solve the grand challenges facing humanity today.
