ESA Innovation Prize winners

From this year’s record 91 proposals, the winner of the special ESA Innovation Prize at the European Satellite Navigation Competition (ESNC) 2011 is ‘twofloats’, a proximity service that tracks and tells registered users when they are close to each other. Members would never again miss an opportunity to meet.
