KPMG Tomorrow´s Market Award

With the KPMG Tomorrow's Market Award we aim to identify technologies with strong market potential while promoting innovation and research.

A fruitful partnership
The Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) and KPMG are the sponsors of this high-profile award. The EPFL is an outstanding partner in the field of scientific research, with its ongoing involvement in some of the most significant technological achievements in recent times. The EPFL's findings and discoveries aim to benefit society, not only from a business point of view, but also in terms of quality of life.

KPMG Tomorrow's Market Award 2009
In 2009 the KPMG Tomorrow's Market Award was given to Imina Technologies, a start-up company whose micro-robots could revolutionize nano-manipulation. With the backing of the Confederation's innovation promotion agency (CTI start-up) in particular, the young company has already attracted interest from several research centers in Switzerland and Europe.

KPMG Tomorrow's Market Award 2008
The KPMG Tomorrow´s Market Award for 2008 went to Jochen Mundiger for the development of routeRANK, a travel solution that combines practical, efficient and environmentally friendly aspects of travel planning.
