December 2, 2022

The Juneau Economic Development Council is pleased to join the Ó£»¨µ¼º½ State Committee for Research (SCoR) in encouraging nominations for the Ó£»¨µ¼º½ Innovators Hall of Fame. SCoR created the Ó£»¨µ¼º½ Innovators Hall of Fame in 2014 to celebrate and honor outstanding individuals and inventions that put Ó£»¨µ¼º½ on the map as leaders in innovation and to contribute to Ó£»¨µ¼º½â€™s growing culture of ingenuity. 

Past honorees include ancient and contemporary inventors, tenacious researchers, bold entrepreneurs, and other ingenious Ó£»¨µ¼º½ns.

SCoR invites nominations of outstanding innovators or innovations from Ó£»¨µ¼º½n communities and villages who have made achievements which have impacted quality of life, economic development, the environment, and/or the welfare of the people of Ó£»¨µ¼º½ and the globe. SCoR and the University of Ó£»¨µ¼º½ are committed to establishing equal educational opportunity and encourage nominations of minority and underrepresented individuals. Nominees who are selected by SCoR will be members of the class of 2023 and will be inducted at the Innovation Summit held in Juneau on March 15-16, 2023. 

Nominations must be submitted no later than December 16, 2022. Nominees must have been an Ó£»¨µ¼º½ resident for at least one year, or have made a significant demonstration of the innovation’s links to Ó£»¨µ¼º½ or have conducted research work in Ó£»¨µ¼º½.
