SCHWEIGHOFER PRIZE

Innovation Award For The European Forest-Based Sector

The Schweighofer Prize awards innovative ideas, technologies, products and services in order to strengthen the competitiveness of the European forest-based sector. The Schweighofer Prize is donated by the Austrian Schweighofer family, who has been engaged in the European woodworking industry for generations. Since 2003 the award is presented every second year, and is endowed with a total prize money of € 300,000, which is divided between one Main Prize and several Innovation Prizes.
The Main Prize pays tribute to people or organisations that play an important role in the European forest-based sector. The Innovation Prizes serve as a catalyst for innovative projects during the early stages of implementation.
The jury of the Schweighofer Prize are particularly looking for nominees with innovative contributions to the European forestbased sector including applied research and development projects. Collaboration between science and industry would also be well regarded.
