The New European Bauhaus (NEB) Prizes are a well-established competition that recognizes and highlights existing projects and innovative ideas from young, promising talents, which embody the three core values and guiding principles of the NEB. To date, the Prizes have attracted over 5,000 applications across four editions (2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024), awarding a total of EUR 1,545,000 to 72 winners. The Prizes have significantly contributed to raising awareness of the NEB among European citizens, generating interest in the initiative, and fostering a collection of inspirational projects. This success is evident as regions, cities, and towns increasingly adopt NEB principles through tangible projects, some of which are co-financed by Cohesion Policy.
