The Medal was first awarded in 1985 following its creation in 1980 by Congress. It is given annually to individuals, teams or companies for accomplishments in the innovation, development, commercialization and management of technology, as evidenced by the establishment of new or significantly improved products, processes or services.
Past awards have been made in five main areas: technology product and process; technology management and policy; technology concepts; technology and technological manpower development; and environmental technology.
The deadline for submitting 2005 nominations is July 28, 2004. Nomination forms and guidelines may be downloaded from the National Medal of Technology website at http://www.technology.gov/Medal/Nomination.htm.
