ICIS to award innovation

ICIS is now taking entries for its eighth annual ICIS Innovation Awards, designed to recognise outstanding technological and business innovation in the chemical industry.

Competitions like this allow the industry to demonstrate and honor the commitment by its constituent companies to a variety of critical causes — like environmental protection, or innovations that expand the pace and scope of overall innovation.

In fact, it’s got to be daunting to pick out particular cases of innovation in an industry that thrives on it, and is such a constant engine of invention and improvement.

The five categories of competition consist of…

  • Best Product Innovation – sponsored by CRA
  • Best Innovation by a Small or Medium-sized Enterprise (SME)
  • Best Business Innovation
  • Best Innovation for Sustainability
  • Innovation with the Best Environmental Benefit
