Bring innovation to life as a Challenge Works ambassador

It takes a team to bring a challenge prize solution to life, and part of that team are our ambassadors.

Challenge Works ambassadors are involved in getting our message out there and shining a spotlight where it matters.

With opportunities for experts to sit on our judging panels, to facilitate workshops or even help to up-skill our teams, there are so many ways to get involved.

We believe that the best solutions to today’s challenges will be generated by opening up a problem to a wider pool of problem-solvers and accelerating progress.

What does an ambassador do?

Our ambassadors are crucial to the success of our challenge prizes. Here are a few ways to get involved.

  • As one of our judges, you’ll be on the problem-solving front row, selecting the ideas and products that are going to change the world.

    With a panel of experts in your field, you’ll see the brightest ideas first, working with social entrepreneurs across the globe and early-stage problem-solvers as they scale their work to reach millions of people.

    If you’re looking for an opportunity to make a real difference and support grassroots innovation, get in touch to find out more.

    “Thank you so much for inviting me to be a part of the challenge. It was an incredibly gratifying experience and I was extremely proud to be involved.”

    Matthew Reeve, judge on the Toyota Mobility Unlimited Challenge

  • A Challenge Works workshop is a dynamic exploration of ideas, discussion and skill-sharing.

    They’re a crucial part of an idea’s development. As a workshop host you’ll inspire with experience, and guide with expertise – offering support and inspiration.

    It’s an incredible opportunity to see new ideas first and help teams develop them into game-changing products.

    Get in touch to find out more about hosting a workshop, and our team will be happy to help.

  • Do you have access to tools that could help a team achieve its goal faster?

    From technology and systems to courses and other learning opportunities, the services you provide could turn an idea into reality.

    It’s about connecting teams to the resources they need to succeed, with a real opportunity to foster development, fast.

    Think you have a tool that our innovation teams could use? Get in touch, we’d love to hear about it.

    “Working on the Longitude Explorer Prize was amazing. The young talent that I met exceeded my expectations at every interaction. Mentoring as part of the Longitude Explorer Prize will show you how inspirational and passionate young people can be about changing our world.”
