Nobel Prize Series 2017 to be launched in India

“Nobel Prize Series is one of the pillars of our global outreach and aims at raising engagement in science, literature and peace in line with Alfred Nobel’s vision,” said Mattias Fyrenius, CEO Nobel Media.
“We engage millions of people around the world, combining these meeting, events and a daily contact through the digital channels of the Nobel Prize.”
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to inaugurate the exhibition ‘The Nobel Prize: Ideas Changing the World’ which will held at the Science City, Ahmedabad for a month.
At the exhibition, visitors will be guided through the story of the Nobel Prize, its founder, Alfred Nobel, the Nobel Laureates. Other than this, the focus will be on how Nobel Prize awarded efforts have shaped and continued to change our world.
With a special focus on innovation and education, part of Nobel Prize Series will take place in connection with the Vibrant Gujarat Summit 2017. The laureates will participate in a moderated dialogue held at Mahatma Mandir on various topics.
It may be noted that Nobel Prize Series aims to stimulate innovation and creative thinking, bringing together Nobel Laureates, other experts and lifelong learners. This unique programme combines conference, lectures, round tables, an exhibition and other meeting spaces.
By sharing achievements and stories of Nobel Laureates with a global audience, this official Nobel programme inspires engagement in science, literature and peace in line with Alfred Nobel’s vision.
