In addition to receiving prize money, the award winners are given the opportunity to present their work at the world’s largest hearing care event – the EUHA Congress. The award ceremony will take place there as part of the Knowledge Symposium on the first day of the congress. Here they will have the opportunity to pass on their knowledge to the interested professional audience.

Additionally, an article on the respective research topic will be published in the specialist journal Hörprofil. In this context, the award winners can highlight and explain individual aspects in more detail. The work is also published on the EUHA website.

The EUHA sponsorship award can also serve as a career springboard. Some award winners now hold positions at universities and institutes, have become self-employed and specialized, work in expert circles, and are involved in the industry.
