Overview
NASA, USAID, Department of State, and NIKE joined together to form LAUNCH in an effort to identify, showcase and support innovative approaches to global challenges through a series of forums. LAUNCH searches for visionaries, whose world-class ideas, technologies or programs show great promise for making tangible impacts on society.
The LAUNCH Forums focus on key challenge areas, including water, health, air and energy, LAUNCH gives thought leaders a venue for evaluating creative ideas among peers and joining in collaborative, solution-driven discussions. Following the forum, the LAUNCH Accelerator will provide individual support to each innovator to help integrate LAUNCH forum recommendations, and move each innovation closer to successful implementation.
