About

Startups submit an online application, and Foundation judges narrow the field to a Top 10 who face public voting, then a Top 3 who travel to Des Moines, Iowa to pitch live at the Borlaug Dialogue in October. The top three finishers split cash prizes, and every finalist gains exposure to the roughly 1,500 food and agriculture leaders attending the Dialogue.
