The Financial Times and McKinsey Bracken Bower Prize (or simply the Bracken Bower Prize) is a prestigious annual award given to the best business book proposal of the year by a young business writer, as determined by the Financial Times and McKinsey & Company. It aims to find the 'best proposal for a book about the challenges and opportunities of growth by an author aged under 35.'[1]

Established in 2014, the prize is named after Brendan Bracken, chairman of the Financial Times from 1945 to 1958, and Marvin Bower, managing director of McKinsey from 1950 to 1967.[2] The prize is worth {{currency|15,000|UK}} and is presented at the same time as the Financial Times and McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award.[3]

Several previous winners and finalists of the contest landed book deals with major publishers.[4] [5]Penguin Press agreed to publish Meltdown: Why Our Systems Fail and What We Can Do About It, a book about the changing nature of failure in business and life, by former derivates trader Christopher Clearfield and University of Toronto professor András Tilcsik, the winners of the 2015 prize.[6][7][8] From the same cohort, Irene Yuan Sun’s short-listed proposal for a book about China’s economic role in Africa was picked up by Harvard Business Review Press.[9] In March 2019 Kogan Page will publish Blockchain Babel by Igor Pejic, a finalist in 2016.[10][11] The prize also led to a publishing deal for Saadia Zahidi, the 2014 Bracken Bower winner; Nation Books acquired a book based on her proposal, Womenomics in the Muslim World, in 2015.[12] In April 2017, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt published venture capitalist Scott Hartley's book, [https://www.hmhco.com/shop/books/The-Fuzzy-and-the-Techie/9780544944770 The Fuzzy and the Techie: Why the Liberal Arts Will Rule the Digital World], a 2016 Bracken Bower Prize Finalist, subsequent Financial Times Business Book of the Month, and mention among the longlist for the FT/McKinsey Business Book of the Year 2017.[13][14] Published in paperback by Mariner Books, it has been acquired by Penguin Random House in India, and translated into Portuguese and Korean.[15][16][17]
