Vote now for your favourite The Hague Innovator of 2025!
The annual The Hague Innovators Awards bring together the top innovators in The Hague. Winners from previous editions include Naïf Care, Seepje, and North Sea Farmers. The jury has selected thirteen nominees from all the entries, eight of which are for the “Best Innovator Award” and five for the “Future Innovator Award”. But there is a third prize, namely the “Audience Award”, and for that we need your help.
The selected nominees follow a suitable trajectory of training courses aimed at further developing and growing the organisation. As in previous years, the final is part of the program of a leading impact event in Europe: ImpactFest. There, all nominees will pitch their innovative solutions to an audience that includes entrepreneurs, investors, knowledge institutions, policymakers, and governments.
The jury will choose one winner in two prize categories: ‘Best Innovator’ and ‘Future Innovator’. View all nominees here. The audience determines the final prize category, the ‘Audience Award’, which means you can decide who wins! The winners receive cash prizes ranging from €2,500 to €15,000.
Audience Award
You can now cast your vote for the Audience Award. All nominees of the ‘Best Innovator Award’ are eligible. Voting is open until Wednesday, October 29th, 12:00 pm. The award winners will be announced during ImpactFest on October 30th, 2025.
