The sixth edition of the RTIH Innovation Awards is now open for entries.

The awards celebrate global tech innovation in a fast moving omnichannel world, with winners being announced during a glittering ceremony at RIBA’s 66 Portland Place HQ in Central London on Thursday, 21st November.

Designed by George Grey Wornum, 66 Portland Place was officially opened on 8th November 1934 by King George V. Wornum's design was part of a competition to create a new home for the Royal Institute of British Architects after outgrowing the original headquarters at 9 Conduit Street.

On 14th September 1970, 66 Portland Place was granted Grade II* status. Today, 66 Portland Place is home to RIBA's architecture galleries, the RIBA Library, a café, the RIBA Bookshop and more.
