Gartner, Inc. is accepting nominations for the third annual 2017 Gartner Eye on Innovation Awards for financial services. Nominations will be accepted through July 31 via an online entry form. Entry is open to any financial services end-user institution (not technology vendors or technology services companies) that has implemented an innovation using digital technology capabilities, products or services within the financial services industry in the relevant award categories during the past year.
The awards will be presented to company honorees in three categories. Presentations by the finalists will take place at Gartner Symposium/ITxpo 2017 in Orlando, Gold Coast, Australia and Barcelona. The winners will be chosen by the attendees at the events.
Awards will be given in the following three categories:
- Most Innovative Digital Customer Service or Product
- Most Innovative Digital Business Model
- Most Innovative Digital Cost-Saving Initiative
Award submissions are assessed using a robust and dynamic framework to ensure that the assessment process is pertinent and objective. The Gartner Awards Framework (GAF) is utilized as a structured model of assessment that enables the participating organizations to be benchmarked against world-class performance standards. The GAF consists of specialized assessment modules pertaining to the evaluation criteria for each of the award categories. The criteria and subcriteria provide a robust set of requirements that are used as the methodology for benchmarking and learning among the participating organizations.
The identification of a Gartner Eye on Innovation Award winner or finalist is not an endorsement by Gartner of any company, vendor, product or service.
