The Liveability Challenge in its sixth edition, is on the search for disruptive, groundbreaking solutions capable of removing carbon emissions at scale, restore and regenerate coastal and marine ecosystems or establish a circular, net-zero urban food system.

The two tracks of TLC are:

1. Climate Change
The Liveability Challenge is looking for disruptive innovations that can capture and utilise carbon to create scalable products for global markets, as well as solutions that can capture and store carbon at scale. We also want solutions that create value from the conservation or restoration of coastal and marine ecosystems in Southeast Asia.

2. Food & Nutrition
Aims to establish a circular urban agriculture or aquaculture system, or alternative protein system. We are seeking innovative and breakthrough technological solutions to maximise production efficiency and minimize resource requirements.

The Liveability Challenge will award a grand prize of up to S$1million for the winner in each track.

Other funding prizes include investments of $100,000 each from our strategic partners: impact investment firm PlanetRise, impact-focused family office Rumah Group, and venture capital funds Quest Ventures and TRIREC.
