Nominations are now open for the 20th Anniversary Telecommunications Industry Excellence Awards (TIE Awards) hosted by the Australian Telecommunications Alliance (ATA).
The 20th annual TIE Awards (previously known as the ACOMMs) will be presented on 15 July 2026 at the Shangri‑La Hotel in Sydney, honouring exceptional achievements in customer service, networks, products, technology and more across Australia’s vibrant telecoms industry.

“The TIE awards celebrate excellence in an industry that is lifting its standards – and so the dress code at the TIE Awards will be, appropriately – black tie. Like all of the ATA’s codes, compliance with the dress code is not voluntary – it’s mandatory,” Mr Coleman said.
