DALLAS – The Electronic Security Expo (ESX) announces the 2016 Innovation Award winners, recognizing companies that bring the most impactful and groundbreaking technologies to the electronic security and life-safety industry, according to organizers.
Companies with emerging technologies, as well as those that have been field tested are acknowledged through the program. It identifies both the companies that are driving the industry forward with innovative end-user offerings and those forging the path with new or improved tools that help security and life-safety companies be more efficient and profitable.
The winners will be featured at ESX 2016 in the ESX Innovation Awards Showcase on the expo floor. Attendees will have the opportunity to review the award-winning products and services that benefit the end users’ experience, as well as those that benefit top line revenues and bottom line results. In addition, 10 winners will compete in the TechVision Challenge, an interactive “Shark Tank”-style competition, before a panel of top industry experts who will determine the Best of Show product or service.
“The ESX Innovation Awards are the perfect opportunity to recognize excellence and innovation in product and service offerings for the industry, and to reward those companies who are propelling us into the future,” says ESX Chairman George De Marco.
