OutReach – 19 December 2019 – Enterprise Asia
announced the winners of the International Innovation Awards 2019 in Singapore.
Thirty-five products, services and organizations are named as award winners
from over 160 submissions.
“There are not
conventional ‘innovations’. When we set out to identify winners of the International
Innovation Awards, our goal is to present a broad spectrum of innovations that
could spur greater innovation in the recipients’ respective countries and
industries. Just as innovation itself is continuously self-redefining, the
awards are meant to promote continuity in innovation”, said Dato’ William Ng,
president of Enterprise Asia.
Among the notable
recipients are Malaysia’s AIA Bhd, Taiwan’s HIWIN Technologies Corp., Singapore’s Olam
International Ltd., Philippines’ Unilever, Indonesia’s PT MRT Jakarta, and
United Arab Emirates’ Roads and Transport Authority and Vietnam’s Tan Hoang
Minh Group.
Organized
annually by Enterprise Asia, the International Innovation Awards is among the most
coveted global awards for innovation and aims to recognize best innovations in
the categories of Product, Service & Solution, and Organization &
Culture. This year’s judging panel include Martin Daffner, founder of Innobrix,
Professor
Nadia Thalmann of Nanyang Technological University, Professor Natcha Thawesaengskulthai
of Chulalongkorn University, Makoto Shibata of FINOLAB, The FinTech Center of
Tokyo and Anna Simpson of Flux Compass.
“These
are the trailblazers of our world. Beyond the obvious commercial value, these
innovations are what would power the world forward, individually and
collectively. I hope that more companies and organizations would realize that
constant innovation is not a luxury, but necessity”, says Ng.
