REmagine Awards

REmagine Awards recognise and reward talented researchers for their impactful work.

REmagine recognises talent in economics and business across three career stages — Master level, PhD level and Senior Faculty level — each carrying a special prize. All three awards reflect the DEB Impact Agenda, with five societal transitions where Dutch academic Economics and Business can contribute meaningfully.

Five winners of the REmagine Awards 2025 announced

During the DEB Impact Day in Amersfoort on 2 December 2025, the five winners of the REmagine Awards were announced. Fifteen finalists were selected from 103 entries across the five DEB impact themes; each winner received a specially designed crystal trophy and €5,000 to spend freely.

DEB chair Peter Verhoef: "Imagine the fundamental role that economics and business education can play in training a generation that focuses not only on profit and growth, but also on broad prosperity. With this award, we honour individual achievements and demonstrate the power of fresh perspectives in bringing about positive change."
