Since 1976, Rolex has honoured extraordinary individuals who possess the courage and conviction to take on major challenges. Every two years, the Rolex Award for Enterprise is given to five (5) individuals for a new or ongoing project anywhere in the world – one that deserves support for its capacity to improve lives, or protect the world’s natural and cultural heritage. These projects have touched all aspects of humanity by expanding knowledge or improving life on the planet.
On November 15 2016, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles California, Rolex marked the 40th Anniversary of the awards and I was named a Rolex Young Laureate and winner of the Rolex Awards for Enterprise in applied technology category for “Chowberry”, a cloud-based service which provides an affordable source of food intake for disadvantaged demographics through a web and mobile based value exchange service.

The relationship with Rolex Philantrophy has blossomed through the years through programs in the context of communication of sustainability around the world and its mission of supporting the Spirit of Enterprise.
