EU Prize for Women Innovators 2019

Women are underrepresented in terms of creating innovative enterprises. This is an untapped potential for Europe, which needs to optimise all available resources to remain competitive and find solutions to our societal challenges.

EU Prize for Women Innovators 2019 recognises the role of women in bringing about game-changing innovations to market honouring the outstanding achievements of women running innovative companies.

The EU Prize for Women Innovators will be awarded to up to four women innovators in total (three women and one young woman innovator, so-called ‘rising innovator’) who have created the largest impact on the innovation ecosystem by transforming ideas into new and advanced products and/or services for the benefit and wealth of the European citizens.

Prizes

Three prizes of EUR 100,000 each and one prize of EUR 50,000 in the ‘rising innovator’ category will be awarded.

The prizes will boost public awareness of the potential, importance and contribution of women to the innovation ecosystem and create strong role models inspiring other women to become innovators themselves.
