These six companies will now go on to the judging round at IIeX Europe in Amsterdam next month.
In this eighth round, we’re giving new innovators the opportunity to submit their concepts for a crowdsourced round of voting. Past participating companies have seen their businesses accelerate due to their involvements in the Insight Innovation Competition, resulting in funding, partnerships, new clients, and global brand exposure. However, there is a defined prize for the single winner that comes out of the Judging round:
The Insight Innovation Competition is collaborating with the Lowe’s Innovation Lab to help competition entrants gain awareness within a broad consortium of global brands.
All participating companies will be vetted for inclusion in the Lowe’s Innovation Lab program. Selected participants will gain guaranteed organic funding through pilot programs with program partner companies, as well as access to acceleration resources for marketing, strategy, finance, and business development. In addition, all companies will be vetted for inclusion in the Ricoh Innovation Accelerator, an investment and business accelerator program focused on developing new technology solutions that can be applied to a host of business issues, including marketing insights.
On February 19, 2015 we’ll reveal the scores. The highest final score wins. The winner takes home the pot and chooses which of the judges they would like to engage with afterwards as a mentor.
Past winners of the Competition have all gone to greatness, becoming significant players in the industry. They include:

One of the great things about the Competition though is that there are no “losers”. All of the past finalists have benefited from the experience via the brand exposure, learnings gathered during the process, direct business and (in many cases) investment from IIeX participants. Whoever wins the Judging Round, the other five companies will be in very good company indeed.
