ChemSpider wins the ALPSP Publishing Innovation award for 2010

ALPSP awards ChemSpider has been announced as the  winner of the ALPSP Publishing Innovation award for 2010, and some of the team were present at the ALPSP Conference last Thursday as the envelope was opened. The judging panel commented that “[ChemSpider] has quickly become a highly valued and comprehensive community resource and has immense potential for future development”.

We’re especially proud as we were up against the other excellent shortlisted finalists of DataSalon’s Mastervision, the Semantic Biochemical Journal from Portland Press and the University of Manchester, and the AIP’s UniPHY social networking site.

We also managed to recreate the prize giving with Antony & Valery this morning – difficult to recreate the atmosphere of a conference dinner at 9am on an autumn Monday morning though…
