Nine award categories for the first time

For this year's competition, the seven-member expert jury viewed around 130 submissions. "Not only the large number of submissions, with which the exhibitors once again set a record, but also the high quality made our jury members' heads spin. But it is fascinating to see how innovations are being successfully driven forward in all disciplines of the embedded systems world. It is particularly pleasing that the new Electronic Displays category was immediately very well received. A sign that we have taken the right step by including the ninth category," emphasizes jury chairman Prof. Axel Sikora.

The Community choice award

"The community choice award was launched last year and we are delighted to be able to present the special award at ew25," explains Benedikt Weyerer, Executive Director of embedded world.

The winner of the community choice award has a very special honor because, as the name suggests, this award involves the embedded community. In contrast to the specialist disciplines - where the jury of experts determines the winner - every trade fair participant can vote for their favorite of the 27 nominated products in the community choice award.

Voting for the community choice award is still possible until March 11, 2025, 4 pm.
