The Australian Information Industry Association invites The University of Adelaide staff and students to nominate for the 2015 iAwards.
The iAwards cultivates, communicates and celebrates excellence in Australian innovation at both the state and national level. Through the iAwards journey, individuals and organisations build their capacity and confidence to shape the future of Australia. The iAwards provides a platform to showcase innovation, honouring companies at the cutting edge of technology innovation and through the Student Domain and the Hills Young Innovator Award, celebrating young innovators. They discover, recognise and reward ICT innovations that have the potential to, or are already delivering significantly benefit to our economy.

In 2015 the iAwards has a particular focus on young innovators. Students are encouraged to showcase their innovative technology in the secondary, postgraduate or undergraduate student categories, or share in $25,000 prize money under the Hills Young Innovator Award, for those individuals aged under 25. Entry is free across all student categories.
We are also encouraging innovative individuals and organisationsfrom across all industry and business sectors, research hubs, innovation centres, and teaching programs to nominate their projects, products or solutions in any of the relevant iAwards categories.
Nominations can be made online prior to the closing date of 25 March. State judging occurs online throughout April and May, with State iAward winners announced at State events being held in June. Winners and merit recipients go on to compete at the National iAwards in Melbourne on 26 and 27 August.
