Twenty three SMEs, research institutions and individuals from six Australian states and territories have made the short list for the $60 thousand AVALON 2019 Innovation Awards.

The awards are open to Australian companies and the Australian subsidiaries of overseas parent companies. The innovation can be a new product or service to a new approach to business, with entries judged on originality and utility in aerospace, space and defence.

Judged by an expert panel, the awards attracted a record 68 submissions from 33 entrants. They will be presented in six categories as part of the Australian International Airshow and Aerospace & Defence Exposition, 26 February - 3 March 2019.

“The key criteria in the AVALON 2019 Innovation Awards is that the innovation must not only be ground breaking, but must also provide a tangible benefit in defence or industry,” said AVALON 2019 CEO Ian Honnery. “The awards are not about innovation for its own sake, but about creating products and services that solve problems, create opportunities and make a difference in the real world.”
