Nina Birchard with her invention. TWO inspiring Glasgow women are among the winners of a coveted award for potentially world-changing business ideas. Nina Birchard, who designed a device which could revolutionise the way newborns are resuscitated, and Petra Baiba Olehno, who runs ethical footwear website REPAIREL, have triumphed in the Young Innovators programme run by Innovate UK and the Prince’s Trust. They each win £5000, business coaching and an allowance to cover living costs as they develop their projects. Nina, 24, came up with the idea for the Newborn Rescue Towel, during her product design engineering course at Glasgow School of Art.
