How the planet's environmental problems could be solved by technological innovation
This year's Bosch Technology Horizons Award, in association with The Independent and the Royal Academy of Engineering, gave young people in two age groups the chance to answer the question, "How can technology and engineering provide innovative solutions to today's global challenges?"
The winners, Westcliffe High School for Girls, attended a presentation ceremony at The Royal Academy of Engineering in London, hosted by Kate Bellingham, BLOODHOUND Ambassador and President of Young Engineers, and a presentation from special guest Wg Cdr Andy Green, BLOODHOUND SSC driver and current World Land Speed Record holder.
The Technology Horizons Award, now in its fourth year, encourages students to think creatively about the changes and challenges facing the world. The award also seeks to highlight the importance of technology and engineering to young people, and inspire more of them to choose these subjects for study at A level and university.
