CEDIA has opened global nominations for its annual Lifetime Achievement Award. The award, which began in 1992, recognises individuals who have made an extraordinary and lasting impact on the professional smart home industry.
All CEDIA members are eligible to submit one nomination now through June 2, 2025. The CEDIA Board of Directors will review the submissions and select a recipient based on their career achievements and lasting impact on the smart home industry.
“The professional smart home industry is always looking ahead — and rightfully so,” says CEDIA Board Chairperson, Alex Capecelatro. “But the Lifetime Achievement Award gives us an important opportunity to pause and recognise the visionaries whose work laid the foundation for the future we’re building.”
The 2025 Lifetime Achievement Award recipient will be honoured alongside fellow CEDIA Smart Home Award winners. The global award ceremonies are set to take place in the Americas on Sept. 5, APAC on Oct. 29, and EMEA on Nov. 7. Tickets will be available in the coming weeks.
Integrator submissions are due to close on May 7. Submissions remain open across Business, Individual and Manufacturer award categories through June 6.
