Stanford Center on Longevity Design Challenge 2022




The Stanford Center on Longevity Design Challenge offers cash prizes and free entrepreneur mentorship in a competition open to all university students around the world who want to design products and services which optimize long life for us all. The 2021-2022 Challenge focuses on designing physical spaces that will better support century-long lives. $17,000 in cash prizes will be awarded, and finalists will receive paid travel to Stanford, where they will present their designs to renowned industry, academic, and government leaders.

“LONGEVITY-READY ENVIRONMENTS: RETHINKING PHYSICAL SPACES FOR CENTURY-LONG LIVES”
The Stanford Center on Longevity Design Challenge is a global competition that encourages students to design products and services to improve well-being across the lifespan. In its ninth year, the Challenge is focused on how our physical environments affect the way that we age.

CHALLENGE GOALS:

Create well-designed, practical solutions that improve well-being across the life span
Encourage a new generation of students to become knowledgeable about issues associated with long lives
Provide promising designers with a path to drive change in the world
The challenge is organized into two phases that are synchronized with the academic year.

Phase I:  September – December 2021
Phase I is the open call portion of the challenge. During this time, teams will learn about the topic and create their solution concept. The Challenge organizing team will be available during this time for questions. Solutions may be submitted at any time during this period, but no judging feedback will be available until January.

Judging Period: December 2021 – January 2022
During this period, our judging panel will select a small number of finalists. Finalists will be announced in late January.

Phase II: January 2022 – April 2022
During Phase II, finalists will be asked to further develop their idea and to prepare a presentation. Mentors from corporate partners and industry experts will be available during this period. The location of the final competition in April 2022 (on-campus at Stanford University or online) will be determined closer to the finals date and will depend on COVID-19 restrictions.

KEY DATES

Kick-off: September 13, 2021
Phase I submissions due: Thursday, December 2, 2021
Finalists (5-8 teams) announced: January 26, 2022
