A Kensington Palace spokesperson said the prince was on his way and was ‘extremely looking forward to being back in Singapore’.
The Prince of Wales is “probably the biggest cheerleader for the planet”, an Earthshot Prize finalist has said.
The awards will see five category winners presented with £1 million each to scale up their environmental ideas. Mr Erlendsson, whose company creates tyres designed for electric vehicles that are more sustainable and reduce tyre pollution, said the prince’s commitment to repairing the planet “means everything”.
Mr Erlendsson said the “honour is really to be nominated” and that the £1 million would be a “nice extra bonus, but everyone gets the same exposure”. Mr Erlendsson has been in the Earthshot Prize’s fellowship retreat with the other finalists meeting companies which have helped them to craft their “messaging and missions”.Orr Yarkoni, chief executive of Colorifix, which has headquarters in Norwich, said being a finalist was a “huge honour” and the fellowship retreat has been “quite intense but very rewarding”.
