If you select «No», other Users will not be able to contact you. Thus, Users may collaborate on a single Application (and constitute a single Candidate) subject to these Terms & Conditions.

The Candidate has to indicate whether its Project is «Philanthropic» or not («Yes» or «No»). If you select «Yes», you commit to share the Intellectual Property related to your Project free of charge to make it easier to expand (i.e you believe in a not-for-profit approach). If you select «No», you indicate you do not wish to share for free the Intellectual Property related to your project (i.e you believe to a for-profit approach). Some of the required data are public (i.e will be available to anybody visiting the Website), the rest are private (i.e accessible only to the Candidate). It is clearly indicated on the Website. Please note the Project Presentation memorandum and the Philanthropic status are private. The Project may tackle all types of waste generated by an average 4-person family (i.e 2tons of yearly wastes see Website) or focus on a single category. The Project may offer innovative recycling solutions or propose ways to reduce the quantity of wastes by modifying the manufacturing process of goods bought by a 4-person family. However, if a Candidate applies with an innovative approach to adress another type of waste, then the Jury and the Sponsor may be willing to review it.

The Candidates whose Projects have been chosen after the Selection will interact with the Sponsor Team and the Jury through on-line or off-line Q&A sessions. Candidates acknowledge that reference checks may be carried out by the Sponsor if necessary. Additional data will be required including detailed blueprint of the proposed product / service, business plan, costing analysis, biographies of Candidate s team members detailing their experience relevant to the Project. The Nominees will be invited to pitch on May 26, 2018 in Paris during the Vivatech event. Prior to this event, they will be invited to interact with the Sponsor Team and the Jury. The purpose is to enhance the Projects of the Nominees, whatever the final outcome. Foreign Nominees will be invited by the Competition Sponsor (i.e accomodation costs covered by the Sponsor). Disclaimer related to the Application : Nothing herein represents a commitment by the Competition Sponsor to award any funding to any entity making an Application, participating in, responding to, or submitting subsequent information in response to this competition. Any Award will be evidenced by a Award Agreement signed by authorized representatives of the Competition Sponsor and the Awardee. An Application will not be returned to an Applicant. Each Applicant should retain a copy of its Application. F) Awards The Jury will ultimately decide which Projects are to be awarded. The Jury is expected to create various Award categories such as : - Design Prize Award related to a trash bin and a compost bin ; - Research Prize Award (i.e works of a researcher that may have a strong impact on waste reduction or waste recycling in the future) ; - Emerging Idea Award (i.e a product or a service which does not yet exist and needs financing to bridge idea to reality) ; - Promising Product Award (i.e a product or a service which does exist and needs financing to expand) ; - Social Entrepreneur Award (i.e a product or service which create economic value while complying with sustainable development requirements) ; - The Grand Award (i.e a simple and innovative solution which will bring life-changing impact on waste reduction or waste recycling). The Sponsor commits a minimum 20 000 funding per Award category. The maximum per Award category is 1 000 000 since the Jury may decide to allocate a large amount of money to a single exceptional Project. It is extremely unlikely that not a single Nominee be chosen by the Jury before May 2018. In that case, the Sponsor irrevocably commits to extend the deadline of the Competition to source new Projects and identify Nominees and allocate the 1 000 000 Award(s) G) Award agreement The Competition Sponsor is required to exercise expenditure responsibility and related regulations with respect to Award funding made to legal entities. The Awardee will be obligated to execute a written Award Agreement and ensure the Award funding is spent solely for the purpose for which it is/was made (i.e payment of Project related expenses ). The Competition Sponsor is also required to take action to recover any funds that are diverted or not spent for their purposes. H) Intellectual Property The Project submitted by the Candidate must be its own or if it is not the Candidate must be able to produce a license or other authority permitting him to use any Content that is not owned by him. The

Intellectual Property Rights of the Candidate are protected as the Famae Team and the Jury commit to strict IP, non-compete and confidentiality rules : - The IP related to any Project belongs only to the Candidate ; - Famae Team and the Jury shall not launch a for-profit or not-for-profit activity directly based on any Candidate s Application content ; - The Famae Team and the Jury shall not communicate any information related to the Project labelled as private without the prior consent of the Candidate.
