In April 2011, ad:tech began honoring startup companies with promising services and technologies for brands and marketers with our Innovation Award. The November 2011 awards in New York City will feature the following categories: Gaming, Mobile, Social and Shopper Marketing. A special advisory board of industry peers selects the companies to present at ad:tech as well as determine 4 winners, one in each category. The November 2011 winners will be announced during ad:tech NY and each will receive the ad:tech Innovation Award.
