Meet The Judges
Jason Ash, Founder at Young Planet
Jason Ash is the co-founder of YoungPlanet, a circular economy app where families can give and receive parenting and children’s items for free. The company enables parents to put no-longer-used children’s things to good use with new families and away from landfill, for free. With an estimated 80% of children’s toys going to landfill, Jason has been pioneering a waste-free attitude within the space.

James Lynn, Co-Founder at Currensea
James spent two decades in foreign exchange of the world’s largest banks, such as Barclays and Credit Agricole. Originally launched as a B2C proposition before expanding the offering in 2021, Currensea offers users savings of 85%-100% on overseas spending by removing the normal foreign exchange fees leveraged by banks and other card providers.
In addition to saving money on FX fees, Currensea users can opt to donate some or all of their these savings on sustainability initiatives – these donations have planted over 100,000 trees and removed over 3m plastic bottles from the ocean.
