Top 25 Finalists for 2024 Ivory Prize for Housing Affordability Announced

Onx Homes is excited to announce that we have been selected in the Construction & Design category as a Top 25 finalist for the 2024 Ivory Prize for Housing Affordability, a national award to recognize ambitious, feasible, and scalable solutions to housing affordability. We are honored to be a part of this group of finalists that are presenting tangible solutions as Americans are increasingly priced out of safe and affordable housing.

“Earning an Ivory Prize is proof positive of our determination to revolutionize homebuilding, bringing it into the future, ensuring building processes and standards are in line with emerging needs of our time and that safe, resilient, sustainable homes and communities are within reach of those who need them,” said Onx CEO and Cofounder Ash Bhardwaj.

The 2024 Top 10 Ivory Prize Finalists will be announced in April and the final Ivory Prize Winners will be announced in May. $300,000 in prize money will be distributed between at least three winners selected across the three award categories — construction and design, public policy and regulatory reform, and finance.
