2024 QEPrize Trophy

Name: Hallway Studios Limited
Price range: $

The 2024 Create the Trophy competition winner is Sunil Thakkar from India. His design was formed from simply wanting to produce a trophy that was simple and aesthetically pleasing. Sunil said "I first wanted to make it diamond shaped but ended up making this and I thought this would be a perfect shape for a trophy".

Nandan Ambure and Samiha Nasher's designs were awarded Highly Commended by the judges. Nandan's trophy was inspired by the imagery of a plant, emblematic of the fruitful results and prosperity stemming from the innovative endeavours of engineers. Samiha's trophy was inspired by how far women in STEM have come and, and the challenges they've faced to get there. We were delighted that Samiha could join us on the evening of the winners announcement to receive her certificate for her Highly Commended award.
