For the first time since its inception in 2009, the social
entrepreneurship driven Hult Prize is coming to Canada. The annual
Hult Prize Challenge, which has been featured by TIME Magazine as
one of the “Top 5 Ideas Changing the World,” welcomes
university students from around the world to solve some of the
world’s most pressing development issues by launching
for-good, for-profit businesses. Over the past decade, these
aspiring entrepreneurs have transformed ideas into startup
companies in order to address, alleviate and solve a host of global
challenges, including energy poverty, the global food crisis and
most recently, the global refugee crisis. The 2018 Hult Prize
Challenge is focused on Harnessing the Power of Energy. With the
backing of the world-renowned Hult International Business School,
EF Education First and the United Nations, the Hult Prize Challenge
has empowered young people to engage their entrepreneurial spirits,
connect and collaborate with partners
