Innovation can be said to be at the core of any successful forward-thinking business and in this category we set out to recognize sectors pioneers of every form.

Innovation is the category with one of the widest scopes within the Excellence Awards as it looks at novel new approaches in every area, from the fruits of research and development to novel new business practices.

What all the ranked entities have in common is the demonstration of new concepts not just within their own business but in the sector as a whole. The category includes any projects, services or concepts that demonstrate an innovative approach to the market.

Project Examples

  • New products
  • New services
  • Novel product features
  • Marketing strategy
  • Business practices
