Hubert Curien Award to Amalia Ercoli Finzi

Recognizing her commitment, passion and lifetime work dedicated to space exploration


On the occasion of its tenth edition, the Hubert Curien Prize was conferred for the year 2022 to Amalia Ercoli Finzi. Professor Finzi was awarded for her commitment, passion and lifetime work dedicated to space exploration.

The prize is awarded by Eurisy, a non-profit association of European space agencies, government bodies and international organizations responsible for space affairs, and has existed since 2004. Its aim is to recognize outstanding efforts to help society benefit from space.

Every two years a high-level international jury selects a winner from a list of nominated candidates. These are personalities or organizations demonstrating dedication in the field of international cooperation in space science and technology, or in the promotion of space applications and their benefits to society.
