The 2026 Endeavour Awards will recognise the people and projects advancing innovation across Australia’s advanced manufacturing landscape.
While it is important to work hard, it is also rewarding to look back and acknowledge a year’s worth of effort by an individual, a team, or an organisation within the food and beverage industry. Presented annually by Manufacturers’ Monthly, the Endeavour Awards are the national awards program recognising outstanding achievement in the Australian manufacturing industry.
Delivered in partnership with AMTIL and Australian Manufacturing Week (AMW), nominations are now open for the 2026 event. Recognised as the manufacturing industry’s night of nights, the Endeavour Awards bring together leaders, innovators and rising stars to celebrate success, share stories and connect with peers shaping the future of Australian manufacturing.
AMW is Australia’s trade show for advanced manufacturing and precision technology. Owned and operated by AMTIL, the AMW exhibition highlights technologies including CNC machining, robotics, additive manufacturing and software. It is designed to connect professionals, promote innovation and support industry growth.
“This partnership with AMTIL and Australian Manufacturing Week is a natural fit. It allows us to expand our reach and further strengthen the manufacturing industry as the Endeavour Awards continue to grow into the future,” said Molly Hancock, Prime Creative Media’s head of marketing – Events.
RSM and Manufacturing Industry Skills Alliance have also joined as platinum sponsors for the 2026 awards.
The annual gala dinner will take place on 13 May 2026 during Australian Manufacturing Week at the Westin Brisbane.
It is more than an awards night. It is a celebration of innovation, resilience and excellence across the manufacturing sector. The event brings together manufacturers from across the country to honour achievements, connect with industry peers and spotlight the people and companies shaping Australia’s manufacturing future.
A key part of the Awards is the interactive connections between creative problem solvers striving to make meaningful impact within their industries. Staying aware of each other’s progress and remaining engaged in these peer networks can lead to new opportunities and collaboration, supporting growth in Australian manufacturing.
These awards mark milestones, passion and progress from the innovative minds who contribute to the shared goal of building strong industries and communities. From technologies to manufacturing capabilities, it is important to pause and show appreciation by celebrating achievements and acknowledging how far businesses have come.
