The entries will be presented for the first jury session of the international BraunPrize 2005 to the jury members on the 14th March 2005.
The jury members of the international BraunPrize 2005 are:

Gianfranco Zaccai (CEO Designcontinium Milano, Boston and Seoul)
Udo Milutzki (Vice President Engineering and PPM at GTM Kronberg)

Rainer Silbernagel, who has been a member of the BraunPrize Jury since 2001 and has played a very active role in the competition, has taken over the position of Vice President Engineering at Duracell in the US. As a result,
he is unable to continue as a jury member.
We are very fortunate in that Mr Udo Milutzki will be joining the jury inhis place for the 2005 BraunPrize. Mr Milutzki, who has worked in the R&Dand engineering sector at Braun for 45 years, has always had a particularlyclose interest in design and we are delighted to welcome him to theBraunPrize Team.
