FAMAE is an independent family foundation that supports innovation in the field of environnement. The foundation organizes every year an International Challenge to help inventors to create simple and innovative solutions that can substantially improve our daily lives, while significantly alleviating environmental footprints.
The FAMAE challenge supports innovative and concrete solutions to fight against climate change, everywhere in the world, around waste, water, food, habitat, energy and mobility.
It is open to everybody, especially to the education community (students, professors, researchers ...), to the business world (start-ups, small & medium size enterprises…) and to philanthropic organizations (social entrepreneurs, NGOs).
The funding will be at least €15,000 per category and may reach nearly €1,000,000, as the jury may decide to allocate an extremely large sum to a single project it deems exceptional.
