关于我们
The Edison Innovation Foundation is a nonprofit organization that supports the Edison Legacy and encourages students (including women and minorities) to embrace careers in science, technology, and engineering and is committed to educating the next generation of great innovators while using Thomas Edison and his Invention Factory in South Orange, NJ as the foundation of our efforts. Thomas Edison and his innovation drove us through the industrial age and will continue to drive us into the future. Since 1996, we have strived to carry on this important work through education support, professional awards, historical preservation, and much more. The Edison Innovation Foundation has sponsored many contests and awards that encourage innovation in our society today such as the Thomas Edison Pitch Contest, The TOMMY Award for the most innovative companies of today, the Intel Edison awards, and the NJ Black Maria Film Festival. Our foundation and our partner foundation, The Charles Edison Fund, helped make the $15 million Edison garage renovation possible at the National Thomas Edison Historical Park, among many other donations to the site for historical preservation. Follow @ThomasEdison on Facebook for a peek behind-the-scenes, and discover how you can help support our efforts in making a BRIGHTER tomorrow!

Meet the 2024 Nexans-Edison Award winners - Jonah And Lucas Mite Removal Service from Shaker High School. These students created the Mite Wipe, a device to efficiently treat bee hives for varroa mites, the leading cause of bee colony collapses in recent years. Compared to current products on the market that are disruptive, single use, labor intensive and expensive, their one-of-a-kind product can: - Dose two different treatments at once - Last for 50 days without being refilled - Be controlled hands-free - Be reused and run on solar power for optimal sustainability Their engaging and creative presentation was reminiscent of how Thomas Edison once problem solved for the world's problems and were a clear choice for this award that honors students engaged in the shift towards a more sustainable future. Congrats guys! #ThomasEdisonPitchContest #STEMContest #SavetheBees
