2000 Tibbetts Awardee!
Cryomagnetics was honored in Washington D.C. on October 3rd, 2000 with a U.S. Small
Business Administration Tibbetts Award. The program included a reception at the Hotel
Washington, breakfast at the White House, and a Capital Hill Reception. Various officials
from the Small Business Administration and elected officials attended the festivities.
The Tibbetts Awards were established to give well-deserved, national recognition to those small firms, individuals, various organizations and projects that exemplify the business, economic and technological achievements of the Federal Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program. Named for Roland Tibbetts, a former SBIR Program manager at the National Science Foundation, the Tibbetts Awards are an initiative of the Office of Advocacy in the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA).
Cryomagnetics was one of only 63 receipts for the fifth annual Tibbetts Awards and the only firm from the state of Tennessee. Cryomagnetics' advancements in superconducting magnet systems allow today's researchers to perform their work in a more efficient manner with higher precision than before possible. Cryomagnetics was recognized for "... its contribution to the economy and the commercialization of advanced science."

2000 AMSE Awardee!
The American Museum of Science and Energy (AMSE) Tribute to Tennessee Technology Awards
are designed to recognize those individuals who have developed a significant invention
while working in the state. In addition, recognition is given to an individual or teams of
individuals who have helped commercialize technology over their lifetimes or provided
humanitarian service. The primary objective of these awards is to increase the awareness
of the role technology plays in the state's economy and the importance of Tennessee
inventors in advancing technologies worldwide. Entries in the awards programs are
solicited from across the State. The program was founded in 1997 by David Sincerbox,
former director of AMSE. To date, 40 inventions and 165 individuals have received the
prestigious AMSE Foundation Award and the associated trophy.
Cryomagnetics was honored for development of a superconducting magnet system that is gaining popularity in the biological science research laboratories. This system, developed as an extension of technology Cryomagnetics acquired in working with NASA, has broken new ground on a number of fronts. The magnet system is at the heart of a mass spectrometer system that enables researchers to achieve resolution in molecular mass analysis never before achieved.
