Elektra Awards 2025 – The Winners

The prestigious industry awards Elektra Awards 2025 were presented at a gala dinner last night, at the Hilton Bankside.

This established annual high point of the electronics industry was hosted by the excellent comedian Lucy Porter and was watched by an appreciative audience representing all sectors of the industry.

Congratulations to all those who made the shortlist, in what were crowded fields, and particularly well done to the winning individuals, organisations and companies.

And we were proud to have Teen Tech as our charity partner for the event.

For all the winners, see below. And, just as importantly, a big thank you to all the partners who make the event possible, for what were the 23rd annual Elektra Awards.
