The CRA Awards for Excellence in Innovation are now open!

These awards showcase and recognise the inspiring work and impact of industry-research collaboration in the Australian innovation ecosystem, and the translation of research into commercial, economic, social and environmental outcomes that drive future prosperity for all Australians.

If you know someone who has made an outstanding contribution to Australian R&D or innovation, then now is the time to nominate them for recognition.

Winners will be announced at the 2025 Collaborate Innovate annual conference Gala Dinner, being held in Melbourne on Tuesday 20 May.

Entries close 6:00pm AEST, Friday 18 April 2025.

For more information on the awards, including the judging and eligibility criteria, the categories, and how to nominate, please visit the Collaborate Innovate website.

We wish all entrants the best of luck!
