Launched by Prince William, the Earthshot Prize finds, supports and celebrates those who turn bold ideas into solutions for our planet. The Earthshot Prize is built on a simple equation: Urgency + Optimism = Action. Learn more about the Earthshot Prize here.
This equation is at the core of ZEMBA’s work. Through our high-impact tender process, our nearly 50 members are demonstrating action and kickstarting the market for the low-carbon fuels and technologies required to transform global shipping.
“ZEMBA is incredibly proud to be a 2026 Earthshot Prize nominee. At the Aspen Institute, we are honored by this recognition of the power of collective action to catalyze critical change for a more sustainable future. And we salute our first-mover members and their dedication to kickstarting the clean energy transition of the maritime sector.”- Ingrid Irigoyen, President and CEO of ZEMBA.
ZEMBA is eager to learn about the 2026 finalists of the Earthshot Prize later this year, all pioneering organizations that will be recognized at an event in Mumbai, India in November 2026.
