ADC Innovators Award

Are you a dairy innovator?

Australia’s premier dairy event is seeking innovative ideas, research projects and scientific-based outcomes to enhance Australia’s dairy industry.

The ADC Innovator Award sponsored by the Gardiner Foundation is seeking fresh and emerging dairy ideas and innovations that impact or have the potential to impact and enhance the Australian dairy industry.

This is an opportunity to profile and highlight your research, on-farm trial or scientific exploration in front of the national industry at ADC 2025 Gold Coast 12-14 February 2024.

Innovations and projects must be evidence and/or science based or research backed ideas.

The ADC Innovator Award is an adaptation of the former ADC Young Dairy Scientist Award and extends the opportunity beyond the pure science research spectrum in a broader scope and competition for innovative dairy ideas.

Applications for ADC 2025 Gold Coast are now open and close on 31 October 2024.
