MISSISSAUGA, Ont. – Turning ideas into products and services is easier said than done, but for 18 finalists competing for Information Technology Association of Canada’s 2016 Ingenious Awards, the struggle to innovate, collaborate and focus on excellence has paid off.

ITAC’s Ingenious Awards celebrate the use of technology to improve the performance of large and small businesses, large and small government operations and not-for-profit organizations.

“Innovation is at the foundation of much of the success we see within the ICT community,” noted Robert Watson (pictured), president and CEO of ITAC. “Leveraging digital technologies ranging from cloud computing to the Internet of Things, this year’s finalists are transforming products, processes and business models, and are reshaping the way Canadians work, shop, access healthcare, and even do their banking.”

Forty four nominations were scrutinized by judges from the CIO Association of Canada who looked for clear demonstrations of measurable achievement and innovation related to the use of information and communications technology to address opportunities and challenges.

Nominations came from across Canada. A second panel of judges will review the finalist submissions and determine the 2016 Ingenious Award winners along with the Canadian CIO of the Year Award Winners in the public and private sector. The winners will be announced at the Ingenious Awards Gala Dinner on November 8 in Toronto.
