Aurea Award For Social Usefulness

On March 28th, at the AUREA 2019 Ceremony in Belgrade, the BioSense Institute has received the prestigious AUREA2019 Award for Social Usefulness for the first Digital Farm in Serbia and the AgroSense platform. This has greatly contributed to the recognition of the Institute, but also the visibility of the ANTARES project.

"I am happy that our efforts to digitize agriculture have been recognized this way. Each prize is of a special importance to us, but the one that is usually awarded to companies and which now has been awarded for the first time to a research institute, has indeed a special meaning to us as scientists. This is not only a great reward to our work, but also a great recognition of the role that science should have in society. We at the BioSense Institute believe that science has to be responsible and to ensure a better life for citizens as well as the faster economic development of the country”.
