Every December 10, Sweden remembers its distinguished national, the chemist Alfred Nobel, who died on this date. The inventor of dynamite wanted that in his memory, people who had brought “the greatest benefit to humanity” would be rewarded with a prize in his name, accompanied by 11 million Swedish crowns (approximately €953,500) .
A reward to which is added the privilege of spending an evening with the Swedish royal family who are responsible for presenting the prizes every year, before participating in a large banquet organized at the Stockholm Concert Hall alongside winners. An evening followed by another, which this time will take place at the palace.
