Dear All,

Recently, the UK Government initiated a QE Award to recognise and raise the profile of engineering. This is an excerpt from the BBC, see below:

"Sir Tim Berners-Lee, Robert Kahn, Vinton Cerf, Louis Pouzin and Marc Andreessen will share the £1m award.

The citation panel said the five men had all contributed to the revolution in communications that has taken place in recent decades.

The UK government initiated the QE Prize http://www.qeprize.org/ as a companion to the Nobels to raise the profile of engineering."
