Prize winners for
innovation
At the third Enquete award ceremony in Vienna, in November
2008, Plasmait GmbH was presented with the innovation award
for a research project conducted in collaboration with the
institute Zentrum für Elektronenmikroskopie Graz (ZFE). The
project investigated plasma coating on ceramic materials with
the purpose of process optimisation in industrial plasma heat
and surface treatment applications.
This is Plasmait’s second innovation award in two years. In
September 2007 Plasmait won the Fast Forward Innovation
Award, awarded by the Styrian Development Agency (SFG), for
its environmentally friendly heat and surface treatment process
for endless non-ferrous materials.
This was the third year that Austrian Cooperation Research (ACR)
ran the award competition. The purpose of the competition
is to promote, encourage and facilitate cooperation between
small and medium-sized companies (SMEs) and non-university
research institutions in Austria.
At the award ceremony, Dr Johann Jäger, president of ACR,
emphasised the importance of cooperative research to SMEs,
“Especially in applied research, it is the SMEs that benefit the
most from incentives that encourage their cooperation with
research institutions.”
