The winner of this year’s singapore prize will walk away with more than $1,000,000 in cash, as well as a full bag of Tour benefits, including season-long exemption on the circuit and berths in key events. Here’s the full breakdown of what you can expect to receive from the tournament, courtesy of the LIV Golf Singapore prize payout chart.
The winning team will also be invited to participate in a two-day bootcamp hosted by TikTok, where they will learn from industry leaders and receive expert advice on business growth and brand storytelling. The bootcamp will be held in the lead-up to a two-day Innovation Awards ceremony, which will take place on November 13-14 and is open to all ASEAN businesses.
This year’s theme for the program is “resonance” and highlights how literature can elicit emotions, memories and even physical reactions. More than 3,000 people applied to the program, with more than half of those submitting more than one idea. The winning ideas will be chosen by an independent panel of judges, with the top four finalists receiving a share of a $2 million prize pool.
Several projects from the Asian region made the shortlist for this year’s prize, including Kampung Admiralty, a housing complex designed to integrate community space with over 100 apartments for seniors. The project was selected over a series of flashier buildings, including Russia’s World Cup stadium and Qatar’s national library. It’s the third time a building from Singapore has won the award. The Interlace, a stacked apartment complex by architects OMA and Ole Scheeren, took the title in 2015.
In addition to the prize money, winners will have access to a network of leading global entrepreneurs, investors and mentors. The winners will be invited to participate in a summit in Singapore next year, where they’ll get the chance to connect with leaders from other industries and find new opportunities for their work.
This year’s event will be held at the prestigious Marina Bay Sands. It will be the largest in the competition’s history, with over 100 finalists competing for the prize money and a number of other accolades. The winner of the main prize will also be awarded a one-year mentorship with a leading creative agency, along with a grant of $50,000.
The program has been running for 30 years, with this year’s judging panels being led by four industry veterans. Besides the traditional monetary prizes, this year’s contest will feature an audience vote for readers’ favorite entries. The first two finalists in this category will each win a commissioned trophy. This year’s finalists include two senior citizens, Suratman Markesan and Wang Gungwu, both of whom are 91. They are the oldest winners in the program’s history, and both are writing in creative nonfiction. Tamil writer rma cureess also claimed two prizes, in the fiction and reader’s favorite Tamil categories. In total, five writers were shortlisted in two or more categories. This is the highest number ever for the program, which was launched in 1992 and operates in four languages.
