Before the Earthshot Prize is awarded, Prince William will travel to the USA. His wife Kate should not be there.
The annual Earthshot Prize is awarded in Boston in December. Together with his wife, Duchess Kate (40), Prince William (40) is therefore expected in the USA at the end of the year. However, the Royal will travel to the United States beforehand, as is now known.
Noisy become a message the two organizations Earthshot Prize and Bloomberg Philanthrophies are co-hosting “The Earthshot Prize Innovation Summit” on September 21 in New York City. Accordingly, William is expected to personally attend the summit to address the assembled guests.
Is Kate going with her husband William?
Duchess Kate will apparently not be traveling to the United States in September. According to a report in the British tabloid “Daily Mirror” it is a solo trip by the royal. Accordingly, it is also considered unlikely that he will visit his brother and his wife during his stay in the US. Prince Harry (37) and Duchess Meghan (41) moved to the States in 2020. They live in Montecito, California with their children Archie (3) and Lilibet (1).
It is not yet known exactly what the program of the summit will look like. It is also still unclear who should speak next to Prince William and Michael Bloomberg (80), the founder of Bloomberg Philanthrophies. Through the organization, the entrepreneur and former mayor of New York pools his philanthropic efforts.
Prince William wants to save the planet
The Earthshot Prize, established by William in 2020, aims to find solutions to environmental problems. The team behind it had initially worked as part of William and Kate’s The Royal Foundation. As of July 2022, the Earthshot Prize is an independent charity. It is considered one of Williams’ favorite environmental protection projects.
With the prize, which was first awarded in 2021, projects should be supportedto “save our planet”. The upcoming awards ceremony will take place in Boston in December. At the events, five prize winners will be honored each year until 2030. The winners will each receive a prize money of one million pounds, the equivalent of around 1.2 million euros, to push their ideas forward.
