Following the festive ceremony on April 9, 2025, where Prof. Gerhard Fettweis received the inaugural Pioneer Award, we are excited to share some visual impressions of the event. Alongside official press photos from the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities, we captured our own snapshots that reflect the unique atmosphere of the evening.

The award recognizes Prof. Fettweis’ exceptional contributions to mobile communication and trustworthy technologies—core themes of our research at the Barkhausen Institut.
