Your real odds

30 startups were selected for 2026, and only 5 reached the live final, with 1 named winner.

The jury is composed of longevity-focused VC partners, so they are weighing market validation, team strength, and competitive differentiation at a high bar. The applicant pool is niche, which narrows the field compared to general-purpose pitch contests.

What it takes

Submit online application covering team, product, traction, and longevity impact2–4 hours

If selected as a Top 5 finalist, prepare a 7-minute live pitch and Q&A for the Business Stage in London1–2 weeks of prep

Worth knowing

Judges explicitly weight longevity impact, market validation, and founder-market fit, so an application that leads with real customer traction and a clear healthspan thesis will outperform a concept-stage pitch.
