HORIBA supports Physics Olympiades in France

Olympiades is a series of international Science events for high school students, a modest academic counter-part to the sports Olympic Games. Through projects and competition, its aim is to promote excellence and encourage the young generation to learn and enjoy science. By sponsoring the Physics event in France, organized by Société Française de Physique and the Physics Teachers Association (http://www.odpf.org), HORIBA Jobin Yvon contributes to education awareness as a corporate member of the scientific community.  The final round will be held in January 2010 at Palais de La Découverte in Paris, when HORIBA will present one of the Awards to the winners selected by a jury of university professors.
