Xprize Widlfire Competition

Costa Navarino is proud to support XPRIZE Wildfire, a 4-year, $11 million competition incentivizing the innovation of firefighting technologies that will end destructive wildfire events so that humanity and beneficial wildfire can safely co-exist. The prize aims to transform current wildfire management approaches through the development of new technologies that can rapidly and accurately detect, characterize, and respond to wildfires before they become destructive.

At the core of Costa Navarino’s philosophy lies a strong commitment to environmental responsibility, engaging in new practices and initiatives to protect the natural environment. Costa Navarino, is a sustainably driven destination in the Mediterranean, located in the Greek region of Messinia in the southwest Peloponnese, one of the most unspoiled and breathtaking seaside landscapes and a region shaped by 4,500 years of history.

This collaboration with the XPRIZE Wildfire competition is a testament to our commitment to sustainable tourism and the preservation of our valuable environment.
