OMEGA and Starmus Festival announce partnership

The Starmus Festival, which combines science, art, and music, to help the general public understand and appreciate science, announced its partnership with the prestigious Swiss watchmaker OMEGA. Since 2011, it has included performances and presentations from astronauts, cosmonauts, Nobel Prize winners, and prominent figures from science, culture, the arts, and music. As part of its partnership, OMEGA is supporting the Stephen Hawking Medal for Science Communication, honouring people who promote science through three different disciplines including Science Writing, Films, and Music and Art. This year’s three winners will be presented with a brand new 18K yellow gold OMEGA Speedmaster watch.
