And in 2024 we are inviting the global community of entrepreneurs, experts, and creators to build an ecosystem that puts measurable impact at the core of innovation.

Once more we want to celebrate innovative engineering projects and applications, as well as recognising the engineers and engineering teams developing them, to find solutions to the biggest challenges humankind is currently facing.

We believe in excellence and innovation but with impact and a long-term view and we are incorporating social and environmental impact across all categories.

2024 award categories

Our Excellence and Innovation Awards 2024 have at its core a vision aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals and for this year’s IET Excellent and Innovation awards, our judges will be evaluating submissions with a focus on three main areas:

Innovation

Entries that demonstrate ingenuity, and a novel approach to problem-solving.

Excellence

Entries that can demonstrate consolidated processes and proven capabilities.

Social and environmental impact

Submissions that can demonstrate sustainable practices, and societal impact by taking action to minimise potential harms and maximise positive benefits.

Why should you get involved?

  • To get recognition from a community of 100,000+ expert engineers, technologists, and scientists around the world.
  • To demonstrate excellence and ingenuity to tackle complex challenges.
  • To reaffirm your commitment to sustainability and global impact.

And finally, to enjoy an evening and networking event like no other!
