Judging panel for the finalist projects

The skills of the teams, the use of technology as a transformative tool and the potential to have a significant impact are all features of the finalist projects. The high level of the competing initiatives means that choosing the winners will be no easy task for the judging panel.

In order to carry out this difficult task we have brought together a judging panel of renowned expert professionals. A group of experts in the fields of social enterprisetechnology and the collaborative economy. All of these experts are committed to finding new ways to innovate and take action, with society as their main focus.
