The Millennium Technology Prize was represented at the World Economic Forum as a partner of the Finnish Flow

The Millennium Technology Prize had the amazing opportunity of partnering with the Davos Club and the Finnish Flow initiative at the World Economic Forum 2026 in Davos, Switzerland. Our presence in Davos underscored our commitment to fostering a future where the biggest challenges are met with bold, impactful solutions.

The CEO of Technology Academy Finland, Maija Liiri, represented the Millennium Technology Prize in Davos this January, engaging with global leaders, innovators, and policymakers.

In an event hosted by the Finnish Flow, Maija Liiri delivered an inspiring keynote, emphasizing that the future emerges when bold innovation meets courage, capital, and collaboration. She highlighted how the Millennium Technology Prize champions transformative technologies that change life for the better – from climate and energy to health and digital inclusion.

“True impact requires ecosystems – where science, industry, investors, and policymakers move forward together. The Millennium Technology Prize is evolving into exactly that,” Liiri said.

The Millennium Technology Prize is dedicated to advancing groundbreaking technological innovations that truly improve lives and drive sustainable progress worldwide.
