Davidson award 2023

The DSPE is going to present the 9th edition of the “Davidson Award” this year, on November 16th at 4:30pm during the Precision Fair in the Brabanthallen Den Bosch.


This award is named after the authority on precision engineering at Philips in the 1950s and 1960s. The DSPE aims to stimulate young talent with this award and therefore is intended for a young precision technologist who:

  • has been working in the field for 5 to 10 years
  • delivers demonstrable performance
  • actively or passively propagates their enthusiasm about precision engineering.

As a rule, the group of people who qualify for this are not yet widely known in the networks. They therefore depend on someone who grants them their candidacy. An overview of previous winners can be found on the website Ir. A. Davidson award – DSPE. We look forward to your help in identifying the candidates.

The jury is composed of members of the DSPE board, and will choose the winner. What do we need before September 15th?

  • Name of the candidate
  • Short description about the candidate
  • Your contact details, email address and telephone number, for any further explanation.

You can send this information to info@dspe.nl before October 6.

Thanks in advance on behalf of the DSPE board.
