The award ceremony will be held at the closing conference Think | INNOVATE 2024 Happy Hour on Thursday, May 2, 2024.
BALTIMORE & WASHINGTON & ALEXANDRIA, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#ChampionsofInnovation–Think Systems Inc., a national innovation, operational excellence, human capital management and metric + milestone driven advisory firm, is pleased to announce its inaugural innovation recognition program, The Champions of Innovation, which celebrates organizations that have embraced innovation to achieve operational excellence.
This national recognition program will be hosted alongside the second annual conference, Think | INNOVATE 2024, that will tell the stories of the industry’s most unique leaders and companies who are putting innovation at the forefront.
“At Think, innovation is in our DNA. We are constantly innovating and considering new products and programs to accelerate transformation,” said Michael Binko, Managing Director for Venture Services, Innovation and Ecosystems. “This year, we asked ourselves – what’s missing? There are so many incredible companies who are working towards building a better future, yet many aren’t recognized as often as they should. We believe this is the ideal way to recognize innovators, and innovations that play a key role in defining the path to innovation leadership.”
Companies across the country can apply for several recognition categories, including Operational Excellence, Human Capital Management Excellence, and Data & Metrics Excellence. Think is accepting submissions for the Champions of Innovation program now with a February 2, 2024, deadline. Stakeholders with well-documented Innovation case studies are encouraged to submit them for both conference session and Champions of Innovation consideration.
