M-taka has received a Special Mention Award at the Seoul Smart City Prize 2026, in partnership with SEMI Korea!

Selected among 46 semi-finalists from 210 submissions across 142 cities and 56 countries, this is another milestone in our journey to build digital infrastructure for an inclusive circular economy.

Beyond the award, itโ€™s a reminder of how far weโ€™ve come and the work still ahead. Weโ€™re building technology that makes the informal waste sector visible, strengthens recycling enterprises, and unlocks the value of waste.

This recognition belongs to the waste collectors, aggregators, recycling enterprises and the M-taka team building this future with us.
