The most anticipated awards program of the year, the Australian Defence Industry Awards, is back to once again identify the top businesses and professionals in the defence industry across the nation.
Recognising people and businesses rather than products and platforms, the Australian Defence Industry Awards program universally acknowledges all defence industry stakeholders, from primes, SMEs and academic institutions to defence executives, Indigenous and female leaders, students, scientists, academics and technicians, and other high-performing leaders.
The awards are open to all businesses operating in Australia that support the defence supply chain and have become a desirable accolade for individuals and businesses seeking to forge their place in the defence industry. Take the first step toward national recognition and build a reputation for excellence.
Get ready to celebrate in style at the 2026 black-tie gala event that will bring together leaders to celebrate the achievements and excellence of the industry’s best and brightest.
