The TEC Foundation for Excellence in Audio was established in 1990 by the publishers of Mix, the leading trade magazine for professionals in recording and sound. The Foundation is a 501(c) (3) public benefit corporation, dedicated to promoting excellence in audio, video, music and other communications media arts. Through the Technical Excellence & Creativity (TEC) Awards and other programs, the Foundation supports organizations that work to educate professionals and the public about the prevention of noise-induced hearing loss, and endows numerous scholarship programs for students of the communications media arts. The TEC Foundation has contributed more than half a million dollars to these causes.
