The third edition of the Longitude Explorer Prize sought AI-based solutions developed by 11-16 year old's, which will improve the lives of others.

This year asked teams of young people to come up with ideas that use Artificial Intelligence (AI) across our four themes, based on the government’s Industrial Strategy Grand Challenges to help people live longer, live better, live together and live greener.
