The Heineken Young Scientists Awards were established in 2010 and are awarded and presented by the Alfred Heineken Funds Foundation.
The Alfred Heineken Fondsen Foundation and Dr A.H. Heineken Foundation for Art (the Foundations) and the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) have worked together since 1964 on these international prizes, in which the Academy handled the nomination process and selected the laureates. The Foundations and the Academy have jointly decided that the nomination and selection process of the Heineken Prizes 2024 will not be supervised by the Academy. The Foundations are keen to continue honouring science and art within the current form. For more information see: www.heinekenprizes.org
