About
The x prize foundation is an education NON-profit that strives to bring about creative solutions to the grandest challenges facing humanity in the areas of space exploration, education, human health, global entrepreneurship, energy and transportation. The foundation applies an equal degree of diligence and care in developing and managing prize-incentive competitions in those areas where technological innovation is stagnant or regulatory and market forces present extraordinary obstacles. The foundation's underlying mission is to bring about radical breakthroughs for the benefit of humanity. A critical aspect of each competition will be an overall education campaign and dissemination of scientific information that is generated by the competition, which will be published online, and in treatise, thesis, trade publication, or in ANY other form available to the interested public. The organization will ensure that the competitions are widely-publicized and the scientific results of each competition are disseminated broadly. The success of each competition hinges on this publicity.
