RTIH Innovation Awards showcases leading global retailers
2020 RTIH INNOVATION AWARDS OVERALL SPONSOR
RTIH recently announced the launch of its 2020 Innovation Awards.
This includes a Most Innovative Global Retailer category.
Last year, Walmart emerged victorious, impressing our judges with the introduction of InHome Delivery.
It also “leased floors” in a new virtual store called KidHQ. Whilst Walmart Canada partnered with DLT Labs to launch a blockchain-based freight and payment network.
But who will win out in 2020?
Regular readers will know that throughout the year we’ve been flagging up a wide range of forward thinking retail tech initiatives (examples of which can be found here and here).
In November, we will be putting together a shortlist of the coolest tech plays in 2020 across nine categories.
We will then ask our judging panel to vote for their favourites. The panel consists of:
Mike Cadden, IT Director (Sales, Marketing and Customer Services), Office Depot
Sharon Peters, Head Of Technology - Marks and Spencer, HR, Finance, Corporate Services and M&S Bank
Sophie Baron, Founder, Mamamade
Hayley Meenan-Wilkin, Web Trading Management, Ocado.com
Martin Newman, Founder, The Customer First Group
Tiffany Lung, Retail Analyst
Nadine Neatrour, Chief Customer Officer, ByTerry
Luke Phillips, Program Director, Studio Retail
Glen Richardson, CMO and CTO, Ideal Shopping Direct
Gerald Dawson, Finance Director, Forthglade Foods
Andy Mulcahy, Strategy and Insight Director, IMRG
Simon Curtis, Sales and Marketing Director, PMC Retail
The winners will be revealed throughout December.
