Enter the 2025 iAwards: Excellence in Innovation
Do you have an innovation that can make a difference or have the potential to create positive change – be it on a local, national or global scale?
Then enter it into the iAwards!
As Australia’s longest running and most prestigious tech innovation awards, the iAwards can help take your innovation to new heights and give it national and international recognition.
Entries for the 2025 iAwards are now closed.
Who can enter?
iAwards submissions are accepted from innovators across Australia, whether you are an individual, a group, a government or private organisation, or a student.
Note: Western Australian innovators enter the iAwards National competition through WA’s state-based INCITE Awards. Tasmanian innovators enter through the TasICT Awards.
Why enter?
Being part of the iAwards and being recognised for your innovation can help you:
- Gain national and international exposure
- Build new networks, including with investors and mentors
- Hone your pitching skills
- Get your innovation in front of business leaders and government representatives
- Gain expert feedback from industry-leading judges
- Add credibility to your innovation
Entry is simple – and free
All you need to do is to complete an entry form and answer these four questions:
- What is the opportunity that your solution enables and for whom?
- How is your solution different?
- What is the technology that powers your solution?
- How is your solution making (or will make) an impact?
You’ll also need to provide a video (max 3 minutes). This video doesn’t have to be professionally made – just grab your phone and record yourself speaking about your fantastic innovation.
