RTIH retail tech awards showcase innovative startups

2020 RTIH INNOVATION AWARDS OVERALL SPONSOR

RTIH recently announced the launch of its 2020 Innovation Awards, sponsored by PMC, C A Design Services, Brightpearl and EBI.AI

This includes a Startup of the Year category.

Last year, autonomous robot delivery company Starship Technologies emerged victorious. But who will win out in 2020?

RTIH is looking to recognise a startup with a genuinely innovative technology offering, and a company which is well placed to succeed in the long-term (management, funding, the retailers it is working with etc).

Nine categories

Regular readers will know that throughout 2020 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.
