NobelPrizeII

Insights and advice from Nobel Laureates.

The Nobel Prize Inspiration Initiative (NPII) is a global programme designed to help Nobel Laureates share their inspirational stories and insights. By taking Nobel Laureates on visits to universities and research centres around the world, and by capturing their thoughts on video, the Initiative seeks to bring the Laureates into closer contact with the worldwide scientific community, and especially with an audience of young scientists.

The Initiative is organised by Nobel Media, the company managing media rights for the Nobel Prize. Since 2010, Nobel Media has run events in partnership with AstraZeneca in China, India, South Korea, Europe, Russia, Brazil and the United States.

Each Nobel Prize Inspiration Initiative event lasts two to three days, during which a Nobel Laureate participates in a series of lectures, Q&A sessions and discussion panels, with particular emphasis on promoting informal interactions with younger scientists.
