“I would like to thank our sponsors for their support, and look forward to seeing some excellent nominees, whose work we will be pleased to highlight in the coming months.”

A judging panel, chaired by Paul and featuring experts from across a range of science and technology fields, will determine the winners to be announced at the awards ceremony, featuring a reception sponsored by HSBC, which the Cambridge Independent is delighted to welcome as a new supporter of the awards this year.
