We can't speak highly enough of the contribution made to the New Zealand Focus on Health Challenge by our cash and in-kind sponsors and network (insert hyperlink). They are an integral part of this great journey with all sponsors providing valuable assistance as well as contributing hugely to our total prize pool of over $800,000.
Finalists are in the running to win a share in the grand prize winners' prize pool. This pool of cash and in-kind prizes is worth up to NZD$200,000 and will be divided amongst the Grand Prize Winner and two runners up.
Our ten finalists have already benefited from market access and market consulting services, access to research, and legal and recruitment advice. They have also received media training and will benefit from United States-specific media and presentation training at the start of the United States Roadshow.
Semi-finalists and entrants also benefited from training provided by in-kind sponsors in The Challenge Workshops.
We would like to thank our Cash Sponsors (insert hyperlink) for contributing to the cash component of the winners' prize pool; without their help The Challenge wouldn't have been possible:
We would also like to thank our In-Kind (insert link) Sponsors for their significant contributions to The Challenge. The support and advice they have provided to our participants has contributed to the high quality of work all participants have produced.
We believe the programme clearly demonstrates what can be achieved by applying smart people and technology to solve the tough and the common problems that impact organisations around the world.
