The "Mingay Annual Achievement Awards", having a history of 71 years and aimed at the development of Australian consumer electric and electronics industry, are presented each year for the excellent products which contribute to the growth of the industry's retail stores, and its name is derived from Mr. Oswald Mingay who was an early pioneer of commercial radio in Australia and a major promoter of the home electric appliance industry in Australia.
