We firmly believe that the best way to promote innovation is to recognize those innovative minds that have created high-impact projects focused on the growth of their countries. For this reason, we have created the ILAN Innovation Awards, which will award the distinguished Shimon Peres Trophy for Innovation in seven categories. Education, Health and Science, Communication, Environment, Social Transformation, Technology and Peace.

About the trophy

Unpublished work that represents the 93 years of Shimon Peres, through 93 lines.
“The materialization of the Shimon Peres prize in this sculpture will reach the hands of brilliant people. For me, it is vital that the piece transmits the essence of what Shimon Peres bequeathed to humanity through his life and, at the same time, is the most prestigious recognition of today’s innovators in Mexico and Latin America.
Human beings achieve achievement in layers, in stages. It is essential to create things that build you yourself”

– Arq. Jacobo Micha
