The purpose of the MacRobert Award Committee is to identify and choose appropriate finalists and winners of the Royal Academy of Engineering’s MacRobert Award for UK innovation in engineering.
The MacRobert Award, first presented in 1969, is the UK's longest-running and most prestigious national prize for engineering innovation. It is supported by the Worshipful Company of Engineers and The MacRobert Trust.
It honours the winning organisation with a gold medal, and the team members a cash prize of £50,000. The presentation of the Award recognises outstanding innovation, tangible societal benefit and proven commercial success.
