Talk:Millennium Technology Prize

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

About the first sentence: "The Millennium Technology Prize (Finnish: Millennium-teknologiapalkinto) is Finland's recognition for innovators that aim to improve quality of life and raise its profile as a high-tech country."

1) Can we say that this is "Finland's recognition"? By the official website Millennium Prize Foundation is "an independent fund established by Finnish industry and the Finnish state in partnership". Thus the state is not a party in prize giving.

2) "raise its profile as a high-tech country" I did not find anything about this on the official website (except some ad-style information about Finland which is not related to prize itself). Should this be removed? --Misna (talk) 10:42, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
