Dear Entrepreneurs,
On behalf of all of us here at Hult Prize, congratulations! We are so proud of what you have already accomplished and can’t wait to see you present your idea on an even bigger stage.
Every year, tens of thousands of young people from colleges and universities across the world come together through the Hult Prize to think big, be bold, and work hard towards solving some of humanity’s biggest challenges. We believe in the power of young people to create positive change in the world.
At Hult Prize, we have spent more than a decade helping students reimagine the future of business through social entrepreneurship. You are joining a global community of changemakers, thinking differently about how to achieve our goals as a global community.
Today, our program operates in nearly one hundred countries and provides opportunities for you to learn valuable skills related to pitching, creating business plans, marketing, and more.
None of this would be possible if it weren’t for our global staff, our phenomenal Campus Directors, along with our thousands of students’ workforce. Please join me in thanking them!
Keep practising your presentation, and once the summit begins, HAVE FUN talking about your business! Thank you for joining us.
Warm regards,
Lori van Dam
Chief Executive Officer

Dear Startups,
Welcome to Kenya! And a very warm welcome to Strathmore University! We are happy to host each and every one of you at Strathmore University Business School. As a business school, we are driven by our core values: wisdom, excellence, trailblazing and service to society. We strongly believe that through business, we can create the change we so desire in a world that is plagued by the ills that affect people and the planet. Our partnership with the Hult Prize, that began in 2018, was forged on our shared belief that social entrepreneurs are the change that this world needs. You are the people who go beyond their words – you ACT. YOU ARE THE SOLUTION! In our eyes, all of you are winners. Whether you win the USD 1 million or not, do not let that desire to positively impact the world end here. Take the judges’ comments, improve on your business and be the change we need. Congratulations for reaching this far! You have our support in making the world a better place!
“YOU ARE THE SOLUTION!” - DR. CAESAR MWANGI
