From 3,000 to fifty-three. Join us in celebrating the achievements and tenacity of all of our Finalists.

In my experience, the most successful world changers have all had what I call a Moment of Obligation.

“Would you take a look at my business plan?” Some member of our staff hears this request every week. But we use other criteria to find new people and ideas.
