Four standout teams have been crowned winners of the Isle of Man Innovation Challenge 2025, following a global competition showcasing cutting-edge solutions in cleantech, data and AI, fintech, and sustainability.
Now in its third year, the Innovation Challenge attracted over 100 entrants from more than 20 countries, with 14 finalists selected to take part in an intensive 12-week programme. During the process, participants received hands-on support from Isle of Man regulators, government agencies, investors and mentors, using the Island as a live testbed to refine and trial their solutions.
Finalists pitched their innovations at a live showcase on 26 June in front of an expert judging panel and more than 200 attendees. The winners were:
Cleantech: Lnk Technologies (UK) – for their carbon emissions reduction platform, CarbonLnk, which helps businesses optimise energy usage and cut emissions and costs.
Data and AI: Early Ideas by IOM (Isle of Man) – whose AI-powered tool Tandem supports early childhood development with expert-guided, personalised parenting resources.
