In an exciting new format, this year’s Automotive Testing Technology International Awards will take place alongside the ADAS & Autonomous Vehicle International Awards and the Automotive Interiors Awards as part of UKi’s newly launched Vehicle Tech Week Europe (June 23-25, 2026), which brings together three complementary events that celebrate technologies, applications, teams and individuals across the mobility sector.
The ATTI Awards ceremony will take place on June 24 at the Messe Stuttgart, Germany, offering a valuable opportunity to come together and celebrate achievements, recognize excellence and showcase company expertise. It will also serve as a fantastic platform for networking with peers from across the industry.

- Testing Hardware Innovation of the Year
- Testing Software Innovation of the Year
- Facility of the Year
- Simulation Innovation of the Year
- Supplier of the Year
