Join us for the launch of the ninth edition of TLC, where we will be announcing exciting details on more funding, new partners and themes for the year ahead.

With a grand prize of S$4 million this year, along with additional investment funding, The Liveability Challenge invites you to submit your solution!

The Liveability Challenge will be back in 2026 with a ninth edition, to spark a global hunt for innovative and sustainable solutions to the challenges of urban cities.

This year, the top two solutions from either challenge themes will receive S$1 Million in grant funding:

1. Decarbonisation

We are looking for disruptive deep-tech solutions that provide scalable and impactful solutions to reduce carbon emissions across diverse industries.

Examples of such solutions include, but not limited to: waste-to-resource, renewable energy, and energy efficiency.  

2. Cool Earth

We are seeking groundbreaking innovations that specifically address the challenges posed by climate-induced extreme weather conditions.

Examples of such solutions include, but not limited to: heat mitigation, nature-based solutions.

Two solutions in the Decarbonisation track stand a chance to receive up to S$2 million in development funding from A*STAR.

Submissions will open on 4 September - stay tuned!
