They aim to recognise outstanding contributions to the advancement of science and technology by individuals and organisations, as well as to stimulate the enthusiasm and creativity of persons working in the fields of science and technology, and to build an innovative and world-leading scientific and technological country. We encourage eligible local scientists and technologists to submit entries for the Awards," a spokesman for the Commission said.
