Your real odds
Four prizes split across all of Africa and the Middle East means the applicant pool is continent-wide and the competition is steep.
Orange runs this annually, and only three ranked winners plus one Women's Prize winner are funded per cycle, so the total number of funded founders is small relative to the geographic reach of the program.

Worth knowing
Women founders are eligible for a separate €20,000 Women's Prize on top of the main three spots, which means your odds are materially better if you qualify for that category.
