History[edit]
The prize was set up in 1996 by the Photographers' Gallery, London, with the intention of promoting the finest contemporary photography. Between 1997 and 2004, the prize was known as the Citigroup Photography Prize.[1]
Deutsche Börse has sponsored the competition since 2005, with a £30,000 prize.[2] At that point it was renamed the Deutsche Börse Photography Prize. It was renamed again to the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation Prize in 2016, "to reflect its new position within the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation, a specifically established non-profit organisation focused on the collecting, exhibiting and promoting of contemporary photography."[3]
