James Dyson made a statement on the subject
Sir James Dyson, Founder and Chief Engineer, said in his statement about the Award: “For me, the importance of the James Dyson Award is to solve a problem intelligently. It is very important that young inventors question and challenge things. I truly believe that young people want to change the world and I think they should be encouraged. The future is their world. The award gives young inventors the confidence and space to pursue their ideas. 70 percent of our past international winners were able to commercialize their inventions. We are very excited that the award will be held in Turkey for the first time this year. I can’t wait to see radical and groundbreaking ideas. Good luck!” said.
