€10,000 & free exhibition award
This year, 50 research and developer teams from Germany and abroad entered the AMA Innovation Award contest for the €10,000 award. Admitted to the special 'Young Enterprise Award' contest were start-ups, with no more than five years in business, fewer than 50 employees and an annual turnover of less than €10m. The winning team gets the opportunity to exhibit their products free of charge at the SENSOR+TEST in Nuremberg.
The special award goes to Dr. Christian Pawlu’s team from Vienna for the development of an 'Ultraprecise frequency measurement with crystalline semiconductor mirrors'.
“This year, the quality of the outstanding submissions was particularly high, so we nominated six of them. Each of these developments again proves just how essential sensor and measuring technologies are for the advancement of the most diverse areas,” says Dr. Andreas Schütze, Jury Chair Prof, Saarland University. “Among the six nominations we already have a winner: Dr. Christian Pawlu and his team are to be commended as a ‘Young Enterprise’. They have been invited to present their developments at no charge at the SENSOR+TEST 2015 in Nuremberg. Moreover, the submitted project is still a promising candidate for the AMA Innovation Award 2015.”
