Presenting awards to outstanding scientists are some of the most visible activities of grass-root organisations such as the chemical societies of Europe and their umbrella, EuChemS. Awards have many benefits to the societies beyond promoting individual careers – they can help building communities, motivate and inspire by setting examples for young scientists and help highlighting and communicating important achievements in specific scientific fields to a much broader audience.
