The Innovation Prize of the BioRegions
The BioRegions of Germany are the regional initiatives meant to support the use of modern Biotechnologies within Germany. The work group of the BioRegions (AK-BioRegio) is the central network of currently 30 regional initiatives within Germany. Every year, the AK Bio-Regio awards the innovation prize to the three most innovative (already patented) research ideas within the Life Science Industry that they believe have excellent chances to succeed in the current market. Through this the work group of the Bio-Regions is promoting ideas which are application oriented and have strong implementation potential. Through the innovation prize we strive to recognize and underline the sustainability of ideas and an increased orientation of the life sciences towards the technology transfer. Through this the strong ideas of the Life Science industry can be shown to the public eye while again giving the idea a better chance of successful implementation.
