Welcome to the science party of the year, Helsinki Challenge Award Party! It will be held on 24 November at 5 p.m. and the winner of the competition will be announced. Join us to celebrate science and Finland’s next 100 years!

Hanken together with nine other Finnish universities has organised this unique science-based idea competition to celebrate Finland’s centenary. At the award party in November, the seven finalists will present their ideas to support the UN’s sustainable development goals, and an international jury will select one of the teams as the winner. The award sum of €375,000 is intended for implementing the winning solution.

The Helsinki Challenge Award Party will feature inspiring speeches, science-based solutions, music and festival spirit! The event will be held in English on 24 November at 5 p.m. at Think Corner (Yliopistonkatu 4).
