More than that, they also include an online application process with a focus on emerging fields such as the electric vehicle industry, green energy, and the metaverse.
Following next, the firm then assessed each candidate on a variety of criteria, including originality, efficacy, ambition, and impact.





“The result is a list of 200 groundbreaking inventions and 50 special mention inventions which includes life-mapping artificial intelligence, diamonds made from excess carbon in the air, and the most powerful telescope ever—that are changing how we live, work, play, and think about what’s possible” as stated by TIME’s editor.
