Nominations are officially open for the 2026 ATTI Awards, and entrants are encouraged to submit their achievements ahead of the revamped event – now part of the new Automotive Testing Expo Europe-anchored festival, Vehicle Tech Week Europe. For 2026, the categories will be refreshed to align with the new exhibition format. They’ll remain broad, reflecting the wide range of technologies and services shaping modern automotive engineering.
The ATTI Awards celebrate excellence across the vehicle testing and development industry. They recognize suppliers, test labs, OEMs and specialists whose work is pushing the boundaries of testing, validation and verification. In such an uncertain time, occasions like these become all the more important.
An expert panel of engineers and technical writers judges the awards, and this year new members have joined, further strengthening the panel’s credentials.
Important dates:
-
Nominations: Open now!
-
Voting closes: April 21, 2026.
-
Awards ceremony and presentation: June 23, 2026, during Vehicle Tech Week Europe in Stuttgart, Germany.
Companies and organizations interested in entering are encouraged to submit a brief proposal outlining their innovation or achievement (see the awards categories here). It can be a brand-new product, development of an existing one or a new application. For submission guidelines and eligibility details, visit the official ATTI Awards page.
By aligning the awards with Vehicle Tech Week Europe – which brings together flagship expos Automotive Interiors Expo Europe, Autonomous Vehicle Tech Expo and Automotive Testing Expo Europe under one roof – a richer, more integrated industry experience is expected. The unified format promises broader visibility and fresh networking opportunities for nominees and attendees alike.
Alongside the awards, ATTI Awards Forum will deliver a day of high-level content on various topics, and will feature on-stage interviews, panel discussions and presentations. If you are interested in speaking, please contact apoorv.kumar@ukimediaevents.com.
