The International Dennis Gabor Award (1993-2010) was awarded by the NOVOFER Foundation of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences for outstanding scientific achievements with practical applications, with a clear positive attitude towards international cooperation of the researchers. It was named after the Nobel Prize winner Dennis Gabor. The award included a 130 mm-diameter pure silver medal with a hologram of Dennis Gabor’s portrait, a charter of honor, and a monetary prize. The award was normally awarded simultaneously to a Hungarian and to a non-Hungarian researcher and was not awarded every year but, on average, every 3 years or longer depending on the level of the candidates. The award was an honor to Dennis Gabor and aimed at identifying researchers with a likewise successful early career path as Dennis Gabor himself. Because of the high prestige of this award and the broad research area covered, selection of the awardee was extremely competitive, even more so for the non-Hungarian nominees. The award ceremony took place at the Hungarian Parliament. The international Denis Gabor Award was awarded from 1993 until 2010. Since then, the NOVOFER organization continued to offer awards, but under a different name, such as the ‘’Denis Gabor in Memoriam Award’’, or the ‘’Denis Gabor Lifetime Achievement Award’’.
