Applications are open: The 2025 Tata Transformation Prize
We are thrilled to announce that we are now accepting applications for the 2025 Tata Transformation Prize.
The Tata Transformation Prize leverages the exceptional potential of scientists in India to address critical national challenges in three categories—Food Security, Sustainability, and Healthcare—and generate improved life quality outcomes across India and beyond.
The Tata Transformation Prize recognizes one winner in each of the three categories, with INR 2 crores (approximately US$230,000).

Significant changes in many U.S. federal agencies are threatening the availability of critical scientific information on climate change and disasters. Early warning systems that help track and prevent floods, hurricanes, and famine are particularly at risk, impacting researchers and forecasters worldwide.
We’re conducting an anonymous 8-10 minute survey to understand how these changes affect those who rely on U.S. data across scientific disciplines, sectors, and regions. Aggregated insights will help reveal the broader global impact of reduced U.S. government efforts in climate and weather data collection, analysis, and reporting.
Your input will also directly inform how the International Science Reserve shapes future programming and initiatives to support the global scientific community.
