The Prince's Prize Advisory Board composed of members from the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation and the Tocqueville Foundation reaches out to a select group of leaders in various fields to make up the Nominating Committee, which includes distinguished leaders, philanthropists, entrepreneurs, foundation, directors, academics, and previous participation of the Roundtable on Philanthropy. Members of the Nominating Committee are then asked to put forward a nominee for the Prize.
The criteria guide for the selection process includes originality, ability to scale, ability to replicate, impact or potential impact, funds raised or funds leveraged. Once examined across the five judging criteria, the nominees are considered as a collective group. When selecting semi-finalists, the aim is to identify a collection of initiatives that represent the diverse cultural approaches to philanthropy from around the world, furthering the reach of the Prize as a source of inspiration for together philanthropic efforts.
Nominees are to be those responsible for projects or initiatives that have triggered new and important activities in the field of philanthropy.
Five semi-finalists are submitted to the Prince's Prize Jury for consideration. After deliberation and a vote, the Jury submits a shortlist to HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco, who then chooses who will be awarded the Prince's Prize.
