Applying for a business award allows for the opportunity to compare your company with others in your industry. This is very useful for companies operating in new categories.
For example, Codonics, which is a novel medication labeling system, submitted numerous awards when they launched their solution- knowing they needed awareness and validation. Tremendous hard work recognized by Frost and Sullivan and more recently by TAG [Medtech winner] in Medication Safety & Clinical Workflow Innovation.
The Codonics team + me [Omnicell – can you find me?] at the Frost and Sullivan industry awards – bringing back Gold for industry solution of the year. View the channel marketing we worked on.
You can waste your lives drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them.
