Current Affairs Rewarding innovation: Prague hosts European Inventor of the Year awards
The winners of the European Inventor of the Year awards are due to be announced in a ceremony at Prague Castle on Tuesday evening, with 12 inventors nominated in four categories. The award is granted by the European Commission and European Patent Office, and aims to recognise the people who are pioneering solutions to today’s global challenges – a task that’s all the more difficult under the present economic circumstances. Rob Cameron has been speaking to two of the nominees: Bartolomej Janek from Slovakia, and Koen Meijer from the Netherlands.
