Top 100 Innovation Award for strong SMEs

The Top 100 Innovation Award is presented every year to the most innovative medium-sized companies in Germany. This year, we are proud to have won the award with our company in the 51 - 200 employees category. You can find out what this award means and how it came about in our latest blog article.

About the Top 100 Innovation Award

The Top 100 Innovation Award is the most important award for medium-sized companies in Germany. This year, successful companies from a wide range of sectors will be awarded the TOP 100 seal for the 20th time. A confirmation of the innovation DNA of a company.

The Top 100 Innovation Award is presented in three size classes:

• Class A is for companies with up to 50 employees,
• Class B for companies with between 51 and 200 employees
• Class C for companies with more than 200 employees.

In order to prove their innovative strength in the demanding application process, the companies have to face the scientific jury. The path to the award begins after registration with a detailed innovation analysis in which questions are asked on the subject of innovation management.

The participants are assessed in five different categories: “Innovation-promoting top management”, “Climate of innovation”, “Innovative processes and organization”, “External orientation/open innovation” and “Innovation success”. Future-oriented innovation management that fits the company is crucial for receiving the Top 100 seal.
