HERMES AWARD 2024
On 21 April 2024, on the occasion of the Opening Ceremony for HANNOVER MESSE, we will once again be presenting one of the world’s most coveted industrial awards – the HERMES AWARD, now in its twentyfirstconsecutive season.
Numerous Applications were submitted
An independent jury of top-class experts from politics, business, research and society has nominated three products each for the HERMES AWARD and the HERMES Startup AWARD and will select the winners from this group. The criteria of technological innovation, benefits for industry, the environment and society, economic viability and readiness for implementation will play a key role in the assessment of prize worthiness.
The HERMES AWARD is HANNOVER MESSE's international technology prize and is presented each year at the event. All companies and institutions exhibiting at HANNOVER MESSE are eligible for entry, and the prize goes to the one whose product or solution demonstrates a particularly high degree of technological innovation. The HERMES AWARD is presented at the HANNOVER MESSE opening ceremony.
