Semifinalist Teams

XPRIZE Rainforest’s independent judging panel has selected 15 teams from 10 countries to advance to the semifinal round of the XPRIZE Rainforest competition. These high-quality, interdisciplinary teams will spend the next year developing and refining their innovative approaches ahead of the Semifinals Testing in Q2 of 2023 in Singapore. For this, teams will be required to demonstrate the capability and readiness of their technology in a rainforest setting. Ultimately, teams will need to survey the most biodiversity in 100 hectares of tropical rainforest in 24 hours and produce the most impactful real-time insights within 48 hours to win the competition.
