Children'S Prize

The Whole New World Foundation created the global, $1 million Children’s Prize in 2013 and Data for Life in 2014. Based in Miami, WNWF works closely with a major local science museum, academic medical, engineering, and science departments, and the local entrepreneurial community. All of the Foundation’s activities focus on engineering solutions to important problems. Our model unites the power of human competition with the hyper-connectivity of the information age to crowd-source the most promising solutions to important challenges. Winners then enter into a collaborative relationship with us to execute their vision. While fostering innovation, the company thinks like an engineer, placing its strongest emphasis on efficiency and insisting on accurate and scientific estimates of impact before a project is advanced.
