New Product Award

Any company enrolled in the SLAS Europe 2023 New Product Showcase is eligible to compete for a New Product Award. A new product is defined as one that has been launched in the year since the previous conference and exhibition and commercially available for purchase within 90 days pre- and post-conference. Major product enhancements to an existing product may be considered.

All applications are reviewed by the New Product Awards Review Panel, who will evaluate applications for technical merit and commercial feasibility as well as other criteria, inclusive of, but not limited to:

• Market opportunity
• Impact of the product
• Originality of the product
• Proof of concept

The New Product Award Review Panel will review all applications ahead of the conference and select 10 finalists to interview virtually. Up to three winners will be selected.

SLAS reserves the right to select and deselect any company at any given time. All decisions are final.
