Iran's team has won the 35th International Exhibition of Invention in Geneva with Switzerland coming second and Russia in third place.
Iran also came 2nd in this category.
This is different category than the one in which Iran won 52 gold medals and which placed them first of 45 countries -Note though that Iran with 7 awards in this category landed on second place, and that France with 9 award landed on the first place - HOWEVER, it should be mentioned that out of the 9 awards France recieved, 6 of them were awarded by French institutions, while all 7 awards Iran recieved were awarded by foreign institutions.
