Changsha (China) - On 10 January 2009, the successful final adjudication of the endorsed 2008 Lotus Prize Industrial Design and Innovation Design Competition took place in the exhibition hall on the first floor of the Science and Technology Mansion. Eight judges from both China and abroad, Competition contestants and enterprise representatives came together for a brilliant and distinguished meeting of design thinking.

During the final adjudication, contestants presented their ideas. Eight international and domestic judges carefully listened and raised some incisive points about the designs. The judges placed their votes for the winning designs and the outcome was then approved by the Competition adjudication team and organising committee.

Contestants were then asked to write down their own reflection on the competition. According to the contestants, taking a part in the competition has been a precious life experience.

The final results of the public group of the 2008 Lotus Prize Industrial Design and Innovation Design Competition were announced at the following Award Ceremony on 11 January.
