Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham is to partner with XPRIZE to help enable and accelerate existing efforts and pave the way for new solutions to COVID-19 and future pandemics.

Facing the COVID-19 crisis is proving to be one of the world’s most critical challenges. This is a challenge bigger than any one Government or organization can tackle without collaboration and uncommon thinking.  It is the greatest challenge of our generation.

To accelerate the world’s response to the greatest challenge we face today, XPRIZE is launching the XPRIZE Pandemic Alliance, powered by the XPRIZE Data Collaborative, a powerful platform for collaboration, combining data, AI tools, and bleeding edge insights and ideas with a community of innovators on the fringe.

Comprised of a collection of exclusive datasets and AI capabilities spanning multiple domains, the XPRIZE Data Collaborative democratizes access to data and the tools needed to develop solutions, thus enabling teams and collaborators to use these valuable assets to solve the world’s most immediate challenges. The goal is to incentivize and capture the collective intelligence and wisdom of the global community to identify and develop solutions based on data, beginning with the global pandemic we face today, and extending further within the domains of health, economy, environment and equity for all.
