The winners will be revealed at a gala dinner held at The Brewery, London, on 26 November

It is the final day to enter the Broadcast Tech Innovation Awards 2026.
The entry deadline was extended earlier this month to the 25 September, with the qualifying period for projects continuing to be from 22 September 2025 - 18 September 2026. The deadline was extended to give those who have started their entries some more time to complete them after a busy summer and early September, as well as give an opportunity to those who hadn’t been able to start yet.
Now, until midnight tonight, 25 September, it is the last chance to enter the prestigous awards, which celebrate the best creative uses of technology in production and post-production.
New categories for 2026 include Young Talent of the Year (Production), sponsored by Netflix, Best AI Tool and Best Tech for Content Creators, as well as Best Studio Build. There are also the popular regular categories such as Excellence in Grading (with Scripted and Non-Scripted categories), Excellence in Audio Post-Production (Scripted and Non-Scripted), Excellence in VFX, Best Use of Archive, Standout Tech of the Year (Post-Production and Production categories) and more.
You can find the full list of categories at the bottom of this article.
After the deadline passes, shortlists will be created and passed onto a panel of judges from across the industry to decide the winners. The winners will be revealed at a gala dinner held at The Brewery, London, on 26 November, with 500 attendees expected to be there in person.
Judges include senior figures from Netflix, Disney, the BBC, ITV, Banijay, and more, and you can see the full list here.
The awards are sponsored by Netflix, EIZO, Appear and Gravity Media. To find out more about sponsorship opportunities at the Awards, click here.
