Our associate, Dr Barbara Hrovat received the silver and bronze awards for the best inventive solutions in circular economy for 2024

For the third year in a row, the Chamber of Commerce and Industry in the Štajerska region, as a beneficiary of the Strategic Development and Innovation Partnership (SRIP) – Network for the Transition to a Circular Economy, has awarded the best inventive solutions in circular economy. 21 applications and a large number of high-quality innovative solutions that represent a significant step forward in the development of circular economy were submitted this year for assessment. The award winners were decided by a four-member expert jury, which, in addition to the four gold awards, also awarded five silver, nine bronze and three special awards for development activities in circular economy.

Our associate, Dr Barbara Hrovat received the silver and bronze awards for the best inventive solutions in circular economy:

• silver award: "Transparent non-combustible light soluble ammonium polyphosphate film - PhosFilm (EIMV and ZAG)" and
• bronze award: "Microwave induced aeration in late paste phase for green geopolymer foams - MicroFoam (EIMV)".

We congratulate Dr Barbara Horvat on both awards.
