Vision

The Trends Impact Awards 2025 aim to spotlight and honor projects that make a tangible, positive difference in tackling some of the world’s most pressing challenges. Unlike awards that focus on companies or theoretical innovations, these categories emphasize real-world applications and outcomes. We seek to recognise initiatives that not only propose solutions but have demonstrated measurable impact in areas such as environmental sustainability, social equity, and public health.

The awards are designed to inspire a ripple effect—encouraging others to adopt or scale these successful approaches. By highlighting projects with proven results, we aim to foster a community of innovators and changemakers who are driving progress and contributing to a more sustainable, equitable, and healthy world.

The focus on “impact” ensures that the winning projects are not just well-intentioned but are actively creating positive change in their respective fields.

What’s in it’ for the participating companies?

  • One free seat for each nominee to attend the award ceremony.
  • A presentation of your project in front of a team of experts and immediate advice on how to optimise your score.
  • The chance to win one of the Trends Impact Awards and thus gain editorial attention in Trends magazine.
  • The opportunity to present your company to the Trends Impact Awards audience via a stand in the networking area (nominees have the option of paying an additional fee to have a stand in the networking area).
  • The Trends Impact Nominee Label for all projects whose nominations are withheld for the oral defense phase. This label can be used in all corporate communication and promotion.
  • A summary of the jury feedback on your submission, highlighting strengths and areas for improvement, and an explanation of why the winner in your category was selected, providing insights into what set their project apart.
