Every year, Öhrlings PricewaterhouseCoopers together with Lund University Development AB (LUAB) award an Innovation prize worth a total of 250 000 SEK. The point of the prize is to stimulate innovation in the county of Skåne, thus creating more growth companies.

The prize is intended for ideas/projects at research level, preferably with a cross-scientific approach.

LYYN was one of the two projects that received an honorary nomination with the motivation:
” The project combines many years of technical development with research within different disciplines which leads to practical solutions of everyday problems such as orientating in fog.”

The prize is shared by the inventors Olle and Anders Holm, and Andreas Ekengren who started LYYN AB.

”It’s not so much the money, it’s more the honour of receiving this award after all the hours we have invested. It is fantastic that it has led to something that has a real use and potential. It’s a real spur to be recognized in this way when you consider how many entrepreneurial companies there are in this region.” says Andreas Ekengren, CEO, LYYN AB.
