Национальная медаль в области технологий и инноваций ( англ. National Medal of Technology and Innovation ; до 2007 года называлась National Medal of Technology — Национальная медаль в области технологий ) — американская государственная награда «за выдающийся вклад в национальное экономическое, экологическое и общественное благосостояние за счёт развития и коммерциализации технологической продукции, технологических процессов и концепций, за счёт технологических инноваций и развития национальной технологической рабочей силы» .

Медаль может вручаться конкретному человеку, группе людей (не более 4 человек), компании или отделу компании . Медаль присуждается только американским гражданам и американским компаниям. Медаль присуждается президентом США по рекомендации специального комитета и Секретаря Министерства торговли и является высшей американской наградой за вклад в технологический прогресс. За 1985—2008 годы медаль получили 161 человек и 26 компаний и отделов, то есть выдаётся в среднем около 8 медалей в год .

История

Национальная медаль в области технологий была учреждена в 1980 году Законом о технологической инновации Стивенсона-Уайдлера ( Stevenson-Wydler Technology Innovation Act ) . Законопроект поддержали обе партии; он был направлен на поддержку технологической инновации и на повышение технологической конкурентоспособности США на мировой арене. Медаль впервые была присуждена в 1985 году , президент Рональд Рейган наградил ей 12 человек и одну компанию. Среди первых лауреатов были исследовательский центр Bell Labs и основатели Apple Стив Джобс и Стивен Возняк . С тех пор медаль присуждается ежегодно . С 1991 года медаль поддерживается совместно фондом The National Science & Technology Medals Foundation (Национальный фонд по медалям в области науки и технологий). 9 августа 2007 года президент Джордж Буш подписал закон America COMPETES ( Creating Opportunities to Meaningfully Promote Excellence in Technology, Education, and Science ), который, среди прочего, переименовал награду в «Национальную медаль в области технологий и инноваций» .

Вид медали

Вид медали был разработан скульптором и дизайнером медалей Мико Кауфманом ( англ. Mico Kaufman ) из города Тьюксбери , штат Массачусетс , и был выбран из нескольких предложенных работ в 1984 году . Медаль бронзовая, круглая, диаметром в 3 дюйма (7,62 см). На лицевой стороне изображён «технолог-волшебник», на ладонь которого падает луч света и отражается от неё, что символизирует «вход» и «выход» технологии и инновационного процесса. Вокруг — надпись «NATIONAL MEDAL OF TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION» (до 2007 года — «NATIONAL MEDAL OF TECHNOLOGY»). На обратной стороне медали изображён американский орёл, вокруг — слова «AWARDED BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA TO», за которыми следует имя лауреата .

Процесс награждения

Министерство торговли США ежегодно принимает номинации на медаль. Номинация должна содержать рекомендации не менее шести человек, лично знакомых с достижениями кандидата. Для отбора финалистов существует специальный комитет — National Medal of Technology and Innovation Evaluation Committee , — члены которого назначаются президентом на 3 года. Финалисты должны также пройти проверку ФБР на предмет безопасности. Наконец, Секретарь Министерства торговли рекомендует президенту тех финалистов, которые достойны медали. Церемония награждения происходит в Белом доме .
