Entries open for the Technical Invention Prize

The competition for the Technical Invention Prize (TIP) has launched and is now open to entries from anyone who has created a technical innovation that benefits the entertainment industry.

The prize, which is presented during World Stage Design (WSD) 2025, is open for entries from technicians worldwide who have made a gadget, or devised a smart solution for theatre, live performances, or the broader entertainment industry. It is open to creative, simple, and original ideas developed by current or ex-theatre technicians for devices used in common practice on the stage, backstage, or front-of-house. World Stage Design 2025 will take place 18-25 October in Sharjah, UAE.

‘The creative problem-solvers in the live events and performance industries often go uncelebrated for the innovative tools and solutions they develop to simplify challenges,’ said Jacqui George, Project Director of World Stage Design 2025.
