LABVOLUTION AWARD
A new competition is being launched in connection with LABVOLUTION. As of the 2019 staging of LABVOLUTION, the LABVOLUTION AWARD will be given in recognition of real-world solutions implemented by lab operators to optimize their work. During LABVOLUTION 2023, high-caliber seminar and consultancy prizes worth a total of over €10,000 will be presented to the lucky winner.
Successful lab tech optimizations
Do you save a significant amount of energy when keeping your samples cool? Have you found the ideal cleaning solution for keeping laboratory glassware clean at all times? Are your interfaces perfectly suited for extracting new knowledge from large amounts of data?
Very good! The LABVOLUTION AWARD honors the best optimizations and innovations. The award ceremony will take place during the LABVOLUTION 2023.
Conditions of participation
The tagline spells it out: Excellence in Lab Optimization. The LABVOLUTION AWARD recognizes outstanding improvements that bring significant added value to laboratory work and processes.
These can be processes, procedures and methods as well as technologies, software, design or management techniques.
What’s important is that relevant improvements can be verified. And these improvements can relate to a wide range of different areas, including increased productivity, cost savings, speed, reliability, safety, material consumption and energy efficiency or even motivation and employee satisfaction.
To determine the winner, the independent jury will evaluate entries based on the following criteria:
Whether it is a large or a small solution is not decisive.
The LABVOLUTION AWARD is aimed specifically at users from the laboratory sector, i.e. at laboratories, research groups, individuals or laboratory teams.
The ideas can also be small measures with a low resource input.
Prize will be awarded to the best lab optimization project during the LABVOLUTION 2023.
The winner can look forward to high-quality seminars and consulting services worth over €10,000.
