Launch of the Horizon Prize for a Food Scanner

Given the increase in food-related health problems, the challenge set for this €1 million prize is to develop an affordable and non-invasive mobile solution that will enable users to measure and analyse their food intake. This solution will especially benefit people with conditions such as obesity, allergies or food intolerance.

This €1 million prize will be split into a maximum of three awards: € 800 000 will go to the winner and € 100 000 each to the first and second runner-ups.

The contest has been launched and will run until autumn 2016. You will be able to apply from 9 September 2015 until 9 March 2016.
