The INDUSTRIAL Production Products of the Year are entering a new round. This year, our readers can vote in eight categories. We are also awarding a special prize.
The competition for the INDUSTRIAL Production Products of the Year is entering a new round. There is a novelty this year: we are waiving the nomination fee! Instead, companies can submit their current products in eight categories. The editorial team will then nominate the most innovative and interesting proposals for the readers' choice in a pre-selection process.
We will present the nominees both online and in the December issue of INDUSTRIAL Production. Our readers can then vote for the products of the year 2025 in an online poll. The winners will then be announced and presented with their awards at a ceremony at the beginning of next year.
By expanding to eight categories, we want to give all companies the opportunity to present their products even better in the right environment. At the same time, we are taking the latest developments in the market into account and awarding the special prize "AI in industrial production".
You now have the opportunity to submit your products (see box). You can also submit several products in different categories. The deadline for submissions is November 3, 2024 and the readers' choice begins on December 2.
