The Laureate Impact Award
The Laureate Impact Award is given to past Tech Awards laureates who have demonstrated significant progress toward solving a global problem since winning the prize.
PATH, an international nonprofit health organization, was honored by The Tech Awards in 2003, 2007 and 2009. The global nonprofit improves the lives of more than 150 million people a year through initiatives that touch some of the world's most vulnerable populations through vaccines, women and children's health and nutrition. Recently, PATH was the driving force in an international partnership called the Meningitis Vaccine Project that developed MenAfriVac — the first vaccine specifically designed for Africa. The vaccine now has reached 235 million Africans, leading to the disappearance of the deadly meningitis A strain wherever it has been introduced. Read more about PATH's groundbreaking work.
