# Stellenbosch University dominated the Cape Chamber of Commerce and Industry’s inaugural Academic Innovation Awards, winning five of ten prizes. The awards highlight the role of academic innovation in the Western Cape’s economy. Chiedza Vusche, Robin Truter, and Alexandra Lutz received the University Student Innovation Award, while spinout companies Nanosene and Terraclim were also honoured. Winners will be further recognised at the Chamber’s Industry Awards in June.
