IPCs are typically designed to extend the limits of human ability. Some of the most famous IPCs include the <a href="/wiki/Longitude_prize" class="mw-redirect" title="Longitude prize">Longitude prize</a> (1714–1765), the <a href="/wiki/Orteig_Prize" title="Orteig Prize">Orteig Prize</a> (1919–1927) and prizes from enterprises such as <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://challengeworks.org/">Challenge Works</a> and the <a href="/wiki/X_Prize_Foundation" class="mw-redirect" title="X Prize Foundation">X Prize Foundation</a>. </p><p>IPCs are distinct from recognition prizes, such as the <a href="/wiki/Nobel_Prize" title="Nobel Prize">Nobel Prize</a>, in that IPCs have prospectively defined criteria for what feat is to be achieved for winning the prize, while recognition prizes may be based on the beneficial effects of the feat. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Inducement_prize_contest&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Throughout history, there have been instances where IPCs were successfully utilized to push the boundaries of what would have been considered state-of-the-art at the time.<sup id="cite_ref-wp20140521_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-wp20140521-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Longitude Prize was a reward offered by the <a href="/wiki/United_Kingdom" title="United Kingdom">British</a> government for a simple and practical method for the precise determination of a ship's <a href="/wiki/Longitude" title="Longitude">longitude</a>. The prize, established through an Act of Parliament (the <a href="/wiki/Longitude_Act" title="Longitude Act">Longitude Act</a>) in 1714, was administered by the <a href="/wiki/Board_of_Longitude" title="Board of Longitude">Board of Longitude</a>. Another example happened during the first years of the <a href="/wiki/Napoleonic_Wars" title="Napoleonic Wars">Napoleonic Wars</a>. The French government offered a hefty cash award of 12,000 francs to any inventor who could devise a cheap and effective method of preserving large amounts of food. The larger armies of the period required increased, regular supplies of quality food. Limited food availability was among the factors limiting military campaigns to the summer and autumn months. In 1809, a French confectioner and brewer, <a href="/wiki/Nicolas_Appert" title="Nicolas Appert">Nicolas Appert</a>, observed that food cooked inside a jar did not spoil unless the seals leaked, and developed a method of sealing food in glass jars.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The reason for lack of spoilage was unknown at the time, since it would be another 50 years before <a href="/wiki/Louis_Pasteur" title="Louis Pasteur">Louis Pasteur</a> demonstrated the role of microbes in food spoilage. Yet another example is the Orteig Prize which was a $25,000 reward offered on May 19, 1919, by New York hotel owner <a href="/wiki/Raymond_Orteig" title="Raymond Orteig">Raymond Orteig</a> to the first allied aviator(s) to fly non-stop from <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a> to <a href="/wiki/Paris" title="Paris">Paris</a> or vice versa. On offer for five years, it attracted no competitors. Orteig renewed the offer for another five years in 1924 when the state of aviation technology had advanced to the point that numerous competitors vied for the prize. Several famous aviators made unsuccessful attempts at the New York–Paris flight before relatively unknown American <a href="/wiki/Charles_Lindbergh" title="Charles Lindbergh">Charles Lindbergh</a> won the prize in 1927 in his <a href="/wiki/Fixed-wing_aircraft" title="Fixed-wing aircraft">aircraft</a> <i><a href="/wiki/Spirit_of_St._Louis" title="Spirit of St. Louis">Spirit of St. Louis</a></i>. </p><p>One of the leading organizations for IPCs is <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://challengeworks.org/">Challenge Works</a>. This social enterprise, originating from <a href="/wiki/Nesta_(charity)" title="Nesta (charity)">Nesta (charity)</a>, uses IPCs, or 'Challenge Prizes', to catalyse innovative solutions to the world's largest problems. Their work includes the continuation of <a href="/wiki/Longitude_rewards" title="Longitude rewards">Longitude rewards</a>, for example, the <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://dementia.longitudeprize.org/">Longitude Prize on Dementia</a>, which seeks to use <a href="/wiki/Artificial_intelligence" title="Artificial intelligence">Artificial intelligence</a> and other emerging technologies to help those with dementia to manage their symptoms and live independently.

Its mission is to bring about "radical breakthroughs for the benefit of humanity" through incentivized competition. It fosters high-profile competitions that motivate individuals, companies and organizations across all disciplines to develop innovative ideas and technologies that help solve the grand challenges that restrict humanity's progress. The most high-profile X PRIZE to date was the <a href="/wiki/Ansari_X_PRIZE" class="mw-redirect" title="Ansari X PRIZE">Ansari X PRIZE</a> relating to spacecraft development awarded in 2004. This prize was intended to inspire research and development into technology for space exploration.
