The Rey Jaime I Awards (In Spanish "Premios Rey Jaime I" and in Catalan "Premios Rei Jaume I") were created in 1989 to promote research and scientific development in Spain while encouraging collaboration among scientific and business enterprises
The awards are granted by the Fundación Rei Jaume I, whose honorary president is the King of Spain.[1] The Fundación Rei Jaume I is constituted by the Valencian Government and the Valencian Foundation for Advanced Studies, who organize and promote the awards. The awards are of national scope and given annually. Each award includes 100,000 Euros and a gold medal as well as a diploma. Awards are given for high-quality work done in Spain, by candidates who live in Spain or have done most of their research work in Spain.[2][3][4]
The award was first given only in the "Basic Research" area. Later, more areas have been added such as: Basic Research, Economy, Medical Research, Environmental Protection, New Technologies, Urbanism, Landscape and Sustainability and Entrepreneurship.[2]
Juries awarding the prize typically include several Nobel Laureates, who travel to Valencia to take part in the deliberations.[3][5]
