Editorial summary · News archiveLeer en español ↗

Students at Torrelavega’s IES Miguel Herrero Pereda designed reactive strips intended to travel with a phone. The project placed second in FPEmpresa and Esprinet’s knowledge-transfer awards.

Further development

The announced €3,300 would support prototyping, materials and manufacturing. An education award does not establish clinical effectiveness or universal substance detection.

What the competition recognises

The competition aims to make female talent more visible in vocational fields where women are underrepresented, linking technological proposals with the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly gender equality. Its published results list AlertStrip among the winners. This framework explains the award as recognition for educational achievement and innovation, rather than product certification.
