Leaders in High Temperature Superconductivity Commercialization and Collaboration Win Superconductor Industry Awards

Superconductor Week is proud to present the industry's most prestigious international award in the development and commercialization of superconductors to two great leaders in high temperature superconductivity and collaborative R&D. 

The award for “Superconductor Industry Person of the Year,” the industry's most prestigious international award in the development and commercialization of superconductors, has been bestowed upon Amalia Ballarino, Project Leader for the high temperature superconducting (HTS) current leads for the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, a particle accelerator designed to probe the limits of physics and expand our understanding of the universe.  James Daley, recently retired from Program Manager of the HTS program at the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), was recognized for his career accomplishments with the Lifetime Achievement Award. 

The awards were determined by a panel of recognized leaders in science, R&D, and government in North America, Europe, and Asia.  The winners were selected from dozens of nominations submitted by peers around the world from every field of superconductivity. Read More>>
