Igniting Innovation 2016

The 2016 Igniting Innovation Awards, sponsored by the ACT-IAC Institute for Innovation, is seeking innovative products, services, processes or solutions that could be used by government to improve its delivery of services to the public or its internal operations. Nominations are now being accepted through January 15, 2016.

The top thirty (30) nominations will be selected by a panel of government and industry judges and invited to a showcase in Washington, DC in April 2016 to display their innovative ideas to the government technology community. During the showcase the most innovative and effective ideas will be selected as winners through a combination of voting by attendees and judges.

How to Nominate an Innovation:

4. Click the "DONE" button after you answer all of the questions to submit your nomination.
