- AILU INNOVATION AWARD. This will be presented to an individual or an organisation (from academia or from industry) that has developed a new method, application, device or product that has enabled a significant advance in laser or applications technology.
- AILU FELLOWSHIP AWARD. This award recognises an individual AILU member who has made an outstanding lifetime contribution to the industrial use of lasers.
- AILU RISING STAR AWARD. This award is designed to help encourage people in the early stages of their career to develop their interests in laser technology and applications. The award is presented to an individual for a significant piece of work, which has led to real or potential economic gain for the parent organisation and that preferably has wider benefit for the industrial laser use community.
