The Grant Scheme is open to those who express creativity and passion in their area of expertise, whether it be art, music, design, food, or even cocktails. Participants living in the UK and over the age of 25 years old can enter the competition on http://www.CointreauCreativeCrew.com. The Grant scheme is open until 15th April 2016.

The Cointreau Creative Crew Grant Scheme Grand Finale will take place on the 24th May 2016 in Central London, when the Grand Jury will meet with the ten finalists in person, before crowning the winner with £20,000. The Grand Jury comprises of Cointreau's Creative Director Laetitia Casta, Rémy Cointreau's CEO Valérie Chapoulaud-Floquet, UNESCO Artist for Peace Guila Clara Kessous, Liberty of London's Managing Director Ed Burstell and Jo Elvin, Editor of Glamour UK magazine.

They will be selecting the winner by following the Cointreau Creative Crew's Dream, Dare, Create criteria. Dream: How ambitious, avant-garde and authentic are you? Dare: How innovative and driven are you? Create: The quality of your presentation and the quantity of elements created to make your dreams come true. The program is open to all creatives who have a dream they want to materialise: whether it's launching a clothing line, opening your own restaurant, or becoming a professional photographer or filmmaker.
