President’s Innovation Prize deadline is January 24, 2020
Created by Penn President Amy Gutmann to strengthen Penn’s commitment under the Penn Compact 2020 to innovation, the President’s Innovation Prize will provide a graduating senior, or team of graduating seniors, $100,000 (plus a $50,000 living stipend per team member) to envision and implement an innovative, commercial venture that makes a positive difference in the world.
Full application details — including a link to a mandatory pre-application form that will trigger an automated email to your Penn project mentor — are available on the Center for Undergraduate Research & Fellowships’ website: https://www.curf.upenn.edu/prizes. Contact CURF (curf@upenn.edu) with any questions.
