The Green Design Competition

The Green Design Competition is a competition for entrepreneurs in the design industry, for individuals (and teams) with a vision of what the future of  design should look like. The aim of the competition is to find the talented entrepreneurs in the industry who aim to create a new product which sustains biodiversity.

The Green Design Competition is challenging you to:

Design a product and write a business plan, which explains how your design contributes to sustaining Biodiversity

Applicants for The Green Design Competition can be individuals, teams or recently established brands based anywhere in the world. They should be able to design a product (which will significantly contribute to sustaining biodiversity, either by concept, design and production, or usage) and have entrepreneurial aspirations within the design industry. Sustaining our world’s biodiversity should be part of their vision, integrated in their company’s functioning.
