The Economic Times TechEDU India Awards spotlight the innovators transforming education through technology. Whether you’re a tech-enabled enterprise , a K-12 school advancing digital learning, or a higher education institution leveraging technology to drive future-ready programmes, this is the moment to step into the national spotlight

 

Your competitors are already planning their submissions. Are you keeping pace?

 

The deadline is 20 January 2026 — just six weeks away . It may feel like plenty of time, but we know how quickly the year-end disappears.

Good News: Your Path to Prestige is Simple, Exciting, and Achievable!

Forget year-end stress.  We’ve simplified the path to the shortlist into three high-impact steps you can complete before the year-end

 

1. Review the Judging Criteria :  Dive into the Grand Jury’s wishlist. Understand exactly what they value, and align your story to their priorities. This is your guideline to a standout submission.
 

2. Unleash Your Metrics Superpower:  Highlight measurable results, adoption levels, engagement spikes, or efficiency gains. Data speaks, and quantifiable impact is the language of winners
 

3. Polish Your National Narrative:  Tell your story clearly, compellingly, and memorably. Show how your innovation transforms education — and let your brilliance shine for the Grand Jury.
 

Start these steps straight away and you could be largely completed well before the turn of the year, leaving ample time to refine your final submission.
