solution Provider - innovator
June 2026 at NRF PROTECT in Grapevine TX
An idea. A widget. A gizmo. A platform. Whatever it is, its actual impact, or its potential impact is undeniable. This solution provider may have a history of ideas and innovation, or they may be the new kid on the block, but regardless, they have a kick-ass solution and it needs to be recognized.
Maybe there is a great back story in the development of the idea through a retail partnership, or maybe this solution provider had the foresight to solve an industry problem and hedged their bet on its success. The Solution Provider - Innovator category is intended to recognize that "something new", or maybe even that "something amazing" that offers a real contribution to your business, and/or to the industry at large.
To be eligible for nomination, the specific example of innovation must currently be, or have been, released to the industry within the last 24 months. This may include an updated version of a legacy product, and or new enhancement releases that have made a product or service that much better.
Please note: Solution Provider - Innovator nominations must be submitted by a retail client with first-hand knowledge of the Solution Provider's contributions and performance. (Sorry marketing teams, nominations must come from outside the company and not internal nominations from those affiliated with the company) Retailer submissions will be kept anonymous to avoid public endorsement concerns.
For those worthy of consideration as a solution provider leader in outstanding service and support or thought leadership - please consider nominating under the Solution Provider - Partner category.
Nominations are NOW OPEN - Nominations will be open until mid-April 2026
VOTING OPENS IN MAY 2026 - Check back in May for more details.
