Enter now!
Those interested in entering the Robotics & Automation Awards can do so by visiting the awards entry page on the official event website. A detailed list of entry criteria and categories can be found on the categories page.
The entry criteria for the Robotics & Automation Awards varies slightly depending on the category, though most categories can only be entered by OEMs, suppliers, system integrators and other solution or service providers on the condition they apply with an end-user partner. End-user partners are customers or buyers of solutions with which a supplier has worked in the past two years.
Those entering must demonstrate how their implementation of a robotic or automated system has led to measurable organisational, sector or wider societal benefits. There are four categories to which applications can be made without an end-user partner: R&D – Project, R&D – Facility, Best New or Small Company, Young Innovator of the Year and Inspiring the Next Generation.
The ceremony itself will be held this autumn at De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms on 31 October and the shortlisted finalists will gather for a drinks reception, three-course dinner and entertainment – followed by a dazzling ceremony where trophies will be handed out to the winners.
