The winners were announced in a gala ceremony held on September 29 at the Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre
The 47th edition of Silmo was held from September 26-29, 2014 in Paris. The 4-day event saw the professionals from the eyewear industry converge under one roof to celebrate the best of fashion, innovation, technology and inspiration. The highlight of the event was the Silmo d’Or, an innovation prize that rewards the technological innovation and creativity of an entire profession. The entries for the prize were shortlisted by specialised juries, and the shortlisted products were then further evaluated by a Grand Jury consisting of 8 members (experts in every category, big international buyers and journalists) and the Silmo President, and the winners were selected from them.
