Last week, we were thrilled to witness the energy and achievements of Hult Prize Taiwan (@hultprize.taiwan)! Our founder and CEO Elisa Chiu (@elisa.hh.chiu) served as a judge for the regional final for this global competition. Congrats to the winning team @InterWellnesstw, and kudos to everyone who contributed to this platform. ⁠⁠

Did you know - IMPCT Coffee (@impctcoffeetw) was born out of Hult Prize in 2015. This team from Taiwan eventually won the global final and came home with US$1 million to make the world a better place!⁠⁠

The topic this year is FOOD - this common denominator of all of us can also be a vehicle for change. Check it out!⁠⁠
