Not only are they all household names, but they’re also members of the Unilever brand family.
As a global company with a global purpose, all 400+ of our brands are united by our commitment to making sustainable living commonplace.
To drive real change, we need to get creative. That’s where YOU come in.
Introducing the Unilever Future Leaders’ League (UFLL): a multi-stage competition giving students from across the UK the opportunity to solve real-world brand problems.
The Prizes
All entrants of the Unilever Future Leaders’ League (UFLL) will be entered into a draw to win the grand prize:

• a place at the Global Finals
• an iPad (10th Generation)
• a sustainable Unilever product bundle.

In January 2024, the judges will shortlist the top ten entrants (teams or individuals). Entrants who are not already in a team of three will be matched up with others at this stage.*
The top ten teams will have the opportunity to expand on their idea and pitch it to the Unilever judges in February 2024.
After the judges have made their decision, the second-place team members will each win a Unilever sustainable product bundle.
The winning team will be selected to represent the UK at the global finals of the Future Leaders League in Summer 2024. They will travel to the host country and compete against students who have won their national rounds from around the world.
Each member of the winning team will also win an iPad (10th Generation).
*Please note: the winning team that will represent the UK at the Global Finals must be comprised of three members. Therefore if you submit your entry as an individual or in a pair, you will be matched up with others at the finals stage. We encourage you to submit in a team of three where possible.
