Sign up for the Audio Explorers engineering championship before 10 April 2025 and show us what you can do within either electrical-, mechanical-, and software engineering. We pick approximately 26 winners that get to go with us to New York in August 2025. All expenses covered.

The winning teams will be equipped with a GPS and a small Sound Activity Meter (SAM) to examine sound levels in the world’s quintessential urban environment.

A packed schedule awaits the winners. You will be fascinated by technical museums, get to visit hi-tech companies and meet leading researchers within sound to hear about their projects. Our own engineers will also give daily lessons on the R&D we do at Demant.


The first year of the Audio Explorers competition was in 2016, when the country’s brightest 25 engineering students flew to New York.

In August 2024, our Audio Explorers had a packed schedule. Their four days of activities included a visit to a top hi-tech company, students presenting their project with a skyline view over Manhattan, and noise data collection throughout New York.

Becoming part of the Audio Explorers Alumni network is a great way to meet new people with common professional interests. We see the Audio Explorers Alumni as an important platform for sharing knowledge, events, and opportunities, and networking with new and future friends and contacts. That's why we organise several interesting events for the winners during the year.
