Fast Company's Innovation By Design Awards

Did you design a brilliant, life-changing device? Did your firm create an inspiring tool for tomorrow? Enter our inaugural Innovation By Design Awards, honoring the year's best designs. This award program offers entrants an unmatched opportunity to reach entrepreneurs and executives looking to find fresh talent.

Categories for the Innovation By Design Awards include: Spaces, Consumer Products, Services & Systems, Interactive Experiences, 2-D Designs, Industrial Equipment, Transportation, Concepts, and Student Design

Entries will be judged on their business impact, beauty, originality, functionality, social impact, and depth of user insight—six necessary ingredients for any great innovation. Online submission ends June 1st and finalists will be determined by a stellar line-up of design experts.

Together, Fast Company and Co.Design offer a reach and influence that’s unique—Fast Company reaches 2.9 million readers every issue. Co.Design reaches another 1.5 million readers a month, serving over 6 million page views.

Finalists will be published in a feature package in Fast Company's October design issue. Winners will be announced at a gala in New York City on Tuesday, October 16 and will then be published and announced on Co.Design.
