Chris Sutton receives APMP Award

30 November 2017

On 29th November our very own Dr Chris Sutton was awarded this year's Asia Pacific Metrology Programme (APMP) Award at the APMP's General Assembly in India for his "Significant contribution to the development of metrology in the Asia Pacific region".

We always regarded Chris as a World Expert but now it has been officially recognised by APMP. Chris's career in metrology spans 42years faithfully with MSL working through some very interesting times of metrological development.  Currently Chris is focused on building New Zealand's Kibble Balance, a super-precise instrument that aligns with the redefinition of the kilogram and will replace the need for weight artefacts.  Chris has been an integral part in many great leaps forward for metrology worldwide and he has helped build MSL's reputation and credibility.
