For six decades, Aviation Week editors have recognized outstanding achievements in aviation, aerospace and defense through our annual Laureate awards. Over those years, we’ve honored hundreds of individuals and teams responsible for dynamic advances in technology and exploration.
Aviation Week’s team of more than two dozen editors casts a wide net around the globe, but we don’t see everything. That is why it is vital that we receive outside nominations. Know of an individual or achievement in the last year that deserves recognition? Nominate them for Aviation Week’s 2018 Laureate Awards.
