Members and exhibitors at the upcoming IPC APEX EXPO 2019 will have the opportunity to promote their new ideas in electronics by competing for the IPC APEX EXPO 2019 Innovation Awards, awards that recognize outstanding products and services for the electronics industry.
“The IPC Innovation Awards allow us to celebrate the top innovators and thought leaders who are changing the technological landscape of the electronics industry,” said John Mitchell, IPC president and CEO. “IPC APEX EXPO provides a one-of-a-kind opportunity for exhibitors to showcase the best-of-the-best of their products and services. We look forward to a rousing competition at APEX EXPO 2019.”
The IPC APEX EXPO Innovation Awards program recognizes honorees among the following categories:
- Assembly
- Assembly Materials
- Environmental
- Industry 4.0
- PCB Design
- PCB Fabrication
- PCB Materials
- Test & Inspection
- Services
- Software
Products and services will be reviewed, rated and scored by a panel of industry experts who will provide a numerical value based on the following criteria: How is this product innovative? How is this product changing the manufacturing industry? What value will customers experience with this new product?
Each product will receive a cumulative score with a baseline value derived from the cumulative scores in each category. All scores above the baseline are designated as Honorees.
The Best of Innovation Award will be awarded to the highest-rated product or technology in each category, as long as that product surpasses a previously determined minimum score.
If the highest-rated product in a category does not surpass the minimum score, there will be no Best of Innovation Award for that category. All award designations by our panel are final.
To be eligible to apply for a product or service to be considered for the Innovation Awards, companies must be an exhibitor at IPC APEX EXPO 2019 and a member of IPC.
There is a $150 non-refundable application fee to apply for the Innovation Awards. Applications must be submitted by December 7, 2018. Winners will be notified by early-January and awards will be presented during the keynote presentation at IPC APEX EXPO on Tuesday, January 29, 2019.
