IFIA invites all innovators to take part in this challenge.
The Temasek Foundation provides a $ 1 million prize to innovations in the Liveability Challenge
The Liveability Challenge
Deadline: 2020-04-30
Award: $1,000,000
Open to: 18+*
Categories:
1-Urban Food Production
2-Circular Packaging
3-Decarbonisation
Finalists in The Liveability Challenge 2020 could secure the following:

• Up to S$1 million in funding by Temasek Foundation•
• 1-year venture building package at The Circularity Studio •
• A mentorship with Closed Loop Partners •
• A spot in TXG Sustainability Business Accelerator Program •
• and more to be unveiled •

Introduction challenge:

The themes for 2020 are Urban Food Production, Circular Packaging, and Decarbonisation.

Urban Food Production
Urban farming represents an opportunity to improve food security in cities and minimise agriculture-related emissions—but still consumes a large number of resources today. We’re looking for technological solutions that will deliver a breakthrough in sustainable urban food production.

Circular Packaging
We’re looking for innovative packaging solutions to replace or reduce packaging waste made from plastic, glass, virgin/hard-to-recycle paper, or aluminum. These solutions should be useful in the retail, fashion, beauty, logistics, and food & beverage industries.

Decarbonisation
We’re looking for solutions that will enable cities to capture and use carbon in a productive, sustainable way. Key considerations include how long CO2 captured can be sequestered and kept out of the air.​ We’re also searching for game-changing, disruptive new solutions to decarbonise traditional sectors and processes in industries such as logistics, mobility and more.

 

Submitted solutions should:
  • Enable the large-scale capture of atmospheric CO2​
  • Effectively capture, store or convert CO2 using little energy and space​
  • Turn captured CO2 into a viable product stream​
  • Be carbon negative in the overall life cycle​
  • Take a systems approach to carbon capture and storage/utilisation​
  • Demonstrate demand for outputs produced​
  • Drastically reduce the carbon emissions produced by industries or sectors
  • Be commercially viable and scaleable​
Submitted solutions should:
  • Drastically reduce the resources that go into packaging
  • Enable manufacturers/producers to do away with packaging altogether
  • Equal the performance of conventional, unsustainable packaging and be cost competitive
  • Be closed-loop: Either compostable, recyclable or bio-degradable
  • Make use of renewable feedstock. The solution should consider the availability and sustainability of feedstock
Submitted solutions should:
  • Produce novel food or alternative proteins
  • Considerably improve nutritional quality of food over current methods of production
  • Enable certain species of crops/livestock to be farmed in cities for the first time
  • Reduce resource and input requirements (eg energy, water land use) for production
  • Significantly increase productivity for food/nutrition production
  • Result in minimal waste output and/or demonstrate circular use of waste materials
  • Be scaleable
