The Technical Image Press Association (TIPA)[1] is an international, non-profit association advocating the interests of the photography and imaging magazine-publishing industry.

The organization was established in 1991 as an association of European photography and imaging magazines.

[1] Each year, the editors of the member magazines vote for the best products introduced to the market during the previous twelve months, taking into account innovation, cutting-edge technology, design, ease-of-use and the price to performance ratio of the products.

[2] TIPA held its annual awards ceremony every second year[3] at photokina, a biennial trade fair for the photographic and imaging industries.

The board is elected by members at a general meeting held every year.
