This annual award (established in 2022) recognizes individuals with outstanding and innovative contributions to the different areas of nanotechnology that are represented by technical committees (TCs) as organizational entities of the Nanotechnology Council (NTC), usually within the past 10 and not more than 15 years.

Technical Committee Award

Each year the Council will provide an award for the best Technical Committee (TC) for the prior year.  The assessment should be over a year of work. Moreover, the recognition should reflect the work pertaining to the preceding year. E.g., the committees 2018 work will be used to choose an Awardee at the beginning of 2019. The Award will be approved by the Council Excom at its first meeting of the year. A TC may apply for the Award by submitting the Award for Technical Committees Application Form to the Technical Activities Award Chair.
