At dsm-firmenich, the organization believes that ability comes with the responsibility to drive meaningful change. By tackling global challenges at their core and placing social impact at the forefront, dsm-firmenich is committed to developing sustainable, forward-thinking solutions for a better future.

This dedication is central to the company’s purpose—to advance progress that benefits individuals within its teams, throughout its value chain, and in the broader communities reached through its work. To deepen this impact, dsm-firmenich established the dsm-firmenich Progress Foundation, an independent entity focused on fostering sustainable development, empowering communities, and supporting the next generation of changemakers.

As part of this mission, the Foundation is offering an opportunity for five exceptional young leaders to attend the One Young World Summit 2025, scheduled to take place in Munich, Germany, from 3–6 November.

The dsm-firmenich Progress Foundation Scholarship 2025 is designed to support young entrepreneurs making a meaningful impact at the local or global level in one of three key areas:

• Combating malnutrition

• Protecting and restoring ecosystems

Eligible initiatives may include:

• Efforts that address micronutrient deficiencies and provide nutritious food to vulnerable groups

• Programs aimed at enhancing social equity and community resilience

• Projects dedicated to climate action, biodiversity protection, and the restoration of water systems
