Audeara x Australian Audiology Industry Engagement – “Name our Earbuds” Competition
By Audeara (Audeara Limited ABN 27 604 368 443)
About the “Name our Earbuds” Competition
Audeara is proud to present its ground-breaking Earbud product to be released late 2024. The earbuds have been designed with the audiology industry in mind, so we are looking to engage with the industry to name our product. As part of this competition, Audeara has developed product name ideas for entrants to vote on, as well as the opportunity for ideas to be submitted by entrants for consideration. The ultimate decision for the product name will be made by Audeara staff. A single vote or product name submission will be considered as an entry into the competition. All entrants will have their name put into a draw to win an engraved, first edition Audeara Earbud. The engraving may be a short name or initials - to be confirmed with the winner prior to engraving. A winner will be announced on 5 July 2024.
Competition Period: 8 May - 7 June 2024
