Call for applications for the 2025 Challenge Science Prize has begun

The new season of the National Prize in the field of future technologies “Challenge” has begun. At the Future Technologies Forum, the start of accepting applications for the prize in 2025 was announced.

You can submit an application on the website premiyavyzov.rf until May 21.

The prize fund for the Challenge award will increase in 2025 and amount to 60 million rubles.

“I am very pleased to announce the start of the third season of the Vyzov Prize. This scientific prize has been a success in previous years. It is gratifying to note the great interest of the international scientific community, since researchers from 33 countries applied to participate. Scientific achievements in the international nomination and many other initiatives have proven their effectiveness. I am confident that in the next, third season of the Vyzov scientific prize, we will see new scientific names and their breakthrough discoveries,” said Dmitry Chernyshenko, Deputy Prime Minister and Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Vyzov Foundation for the Development of Scientific and Cultural Relations.

The National Prize in the field of future technologies “Challenge” is awarded for science-intensive developments that have significant potential to change people’s lives for the better and have a practical implementation horizon of up to 10 years.

“We are happy to open the third season of the Vyzov Prize, which has burst into the scientific world and very quickly taken a leading position there. Many people ask what the secret of this prize is, which in just two years has become extremely popular both in Russia and even in other countries. And the secret is very simple: the work of the scientific committee, which is built on the principles of absolute impartiality and high competence. Scientific prizes make sense only if they are honest. However, the same applies to science,” emphasized the chairman of the scientific committee of the Vyzov Prize, Artem Oganov.

The Vyzov Prize has five nominations: Perspective (awarded to young scientists under 35), Engineering Solution (for an important invention or creation of a new technology), Breakthrough (for research that has made it possible to solve an important scientific or technological problem), Discovery (a nomination for foreign scientists and Russians living abroad), and Scientist of the Year (for total personal contribution to changing the landscape of science).

“We see growing interest in the Vyzov Prize. This speaks to the high appreciation of the prize by the scientific community. This year, we expect an increase in the number of applications and expansion of geography. The culmination of this season will be the “Week with Vyzov” project in December. After the final press conference, at which we will announce the names of the 2025 laureates, the laureates of previous years will give lectures at leading scientific centers in Moscow. And the spectacular finale will be the gala ceremony of the Vyzov Prize, which, as has become traditional, will be held in the Moscow Manege on December 19,” said Leonid Shlyakhover, President of the Vyzov Foundation for the Development of Scientific and Cultural Relations and General Producer of the Vyzov Prize Ceremony.

The organizer and founder of the award is the Vyzov Foundation for the Development of Scientific and Cultural Relations. The co-founder is Gazprombank. The partners are the Rosatom State Corporation, the Roscongress Foundation, and the Moscow Government.

“The National Challenge Award is one of the significant tools for supporting advanced scientific developments. Last year, one of the award winners was Evgeny Antipov with a project in the field of batteries for electric transport. The development of such technologies is of strategic importance for Moscow, because it is a step towards an environmentally friendly and energy-efficient city of the future. We are confident that support for science and innovation will help us implement the best developments in the urban environment and improve the quality of life of Muscovites. This is why Moscow has been consistently increasing the funding for the award: if in 2023 the amount of support was 50 million rubles, then this year it has increased to 60 million rubles,” said Anatoly Garbuzov, Minister of the Moscow Government and Head of the Department of Investment and Industrial Policy.
