Himag wins Shell Springboard Award
Himag Solutions has won a regional Shell
Springboard Award worth £40,000, ahead of 160 other entrants.
The Shell Springboard Award supports innovative SMEs with products
that help combat climate change, and Himag Solutions’ efficient
planar transformers caught the judges’ eye.
This award comes only five months after Himag
Solutions won a Research Grant of £157k from the South West
RDA. The grant is 60% funding towards a research project
focused on a new generation of lightweight, high performance, high
efficiency planar transformers for the renewable energy, hybrid
automotive, aerospace, defence and mass passenger transit
industries.
Himag Solutions has now been put forward to
the UK finals in March, where they will compete to be named as the
overall UK winner against four other regional winners.
