About the Innovation Awards Program

The program recognizes two levels of honorees among the product categories:

  • Best of Innovation: The highest-scoring Products in the Program.

The program is open to any individual, organization or authorized agent who manufactures, designs, engineers or promotes consumer technology products. Product submitted must be available in the market for the first time after April 1, 2024 or must be projected to be available in the market by April 1, 2025. A panel of industry expert judges review applications in each product category based on specific criteria.
