2009 nominees

"Rewarding excellence in deployment of eSafety systems"

Background

The eSafety initiative brings together the European Commission, Public Authorities, Industry and other stakeholders in a drive to accelerate the development, deployment and use of intelligent vehicle safety systems, so called eSafety systems and thus contribute to the European Commission's ambitious 2001 goal of halving the number of fatalities on Europe Roads by 2010. Over the last years the eSafety Forum has increased its visibility and it is now recognized worldwide as the driving force in promoting eSafety development and deployment in Europe.

The Award Scheme

The eSafety Awards provide an invaluable opportunity to highlight the successes of the most outstanding, ambitious and innovative eSafety deployments and to reward those people and organisations most worthy of recognition and praise.

There are three Award categories:
