ITRI has been recognized with three 2025 R&D 100 Awards for its Bio-Inspired Ligament Scaffold (BILS), Circu-Texfilm, and AI-WaJe™. These technologies showcase exceptional novelty, impact, and practical applications in the analytical/test, mechanical/materials, and process/prototyping categories, respectively.
“Taiwan is an important global R&D hub. We see so many different companies partnering with Taiwanese institutions like ITRI,” said R&D World VP and Editorial Director Paul Heney. “ITRI does such a great job every year. I think strong leadership is important. Having a clear vision and deep knowledge in one or two areas, as opposed to ten, is important. Another key factor is having a culture of curiosity among its scientists. These are the things I think ITRI really has exceeded in over the years.”
ITRI representatives attended the 2025 R&D 100 Awards gala event in Scottsdale.
ITRI has received the R&D 100 Awards for 18 consecutive years, earning 69 awards in total, with all of its winning technologies successfully applied in industry. Other 2025 award recipients include leading institutions such as Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Argonne National Laboratory, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
