ANAHEIM, CA – Presented annually by NAMM, the TEC Awards recognizes individuals, companies and technical product innovations behind the sound of recordings, live performances, films, television, video games and multimedia. The 41st Annual NAMM TEC Awards will return to Southern California, on January 23, 2026 as part of The 2026 NAMM Show.
In its annual Call for Entries, the NAMM TEC Awards Committee is currently gathering submissions from pro audio/music manufacturers of their products that were released and in commercial use during the current eligibility year, July 1, 2024 – June 30, 2025.
THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMITTING ENTRIES IS JULY 11, 2025.
The finalists and winners of the TEC Awards are determined through a three-step process. In May 2025, a “Call for Entries” was posted on the TEC Awards and NAMM website, posted in audio media outlets and emailed to audio manufacturers and sound production professionals.
From the pool of product and project submissions in each category, finalists are determined by a Finalist Panel comprised of professionals and thought leaders from all areas of the audio and sound production industry. Finalists will be announced on September 4, 2025.
The deadline to submit entries is July 11, 2025.
