Applications are now open for The Spinoff Prize — a new award for early-stage university spinoff companies from around the world.

The Spinoff Prize aims to encourage and give visibility to academic entrepreneurs and their companies. The judging panel will look for spinoffs that translate original, high-quality scientific research into products and services that address market problems and are well-positioned to make a positive impact on society.

In its first year, The Spinoff Prize will focus on companies commercialising research in four broad categories: pharmaceuticals, agriculture, chemicals and digital technologies. A long list of highly commended spinoffs will be profiled in a special report published in Nature.
