The Super finalists of Best of the Best 2021 were:

• Innovation: Lek – Vision, mixed reality technology in practice.
• Motivation: Bankart – Employee development through the introduction of the role of career leaders.
• Cooperation: National Institute of Chemistry – CCEdit (Proof-of-Concept) to develop the use of an improved CRISPR method for gene knockout in the genome.

The Best of the Best for the year 2021, announced at the last AmCham Business Breakfast, became the National Institute of Chemistry with the CCEdit (Proof-of-Concept) project to develop the use of an improved CRISPR method for gene knockout in the genome.

In 2019, a group from the National Institute of Chemistry filed a patent application to improve the CRISPR method, which represents one of the most important breakthroughs in the field of biotechnology. Based on this technology, prof. dr. Roman Jerala applied the ERC Proof-of-Concept project called CCEdit, which allows for the continued development of technology for healthcare and biotechnological purposes.
