Zenith Awards finalists announced

In less than two weeks the winners of the 2017 Zenith Awards will be announced on August 15th at a gala event at Doltone House, Hyde Park in Sydney.

This year’s finalists have all been outstanding in their fields and deserve the recognition of their peers.

The evening will be hosted by The Chaser’s Craig Reucassel, with our keynote speaker to be Professor Salah Sukkarieh, who is the Professor of Robotics and Intelligent Systems at the University of Sydney. He is an international expert in the research, development and commercialisation of field robotic systems. He has led a number of robotics and intelligent systems R&D projects in logistics, commercial aviation, aerospace, education, environment monitoring, agriculture and mining.

Listed below are the finalists in each category. There are still a very limited number of tickets available for the event, which are available from the Zenith Awards website: www.paceawards.com.au.

Good luck to all our finalists.
