Technology Innovation Award

Over the past year, which of your brand´s technology innovations made the biggest difference for your retail partners, excited shoppers and demonstrated the new technology to them in the best way?

This could be any innovation: a feature, a product, new product design or the creation of a whole new category. It could also be the reinvention or shifting of a whole category, e.g. creating higher value for the whole category.

Sustainability Award

The TCG retail industry is increasingly conscious of its environmental responsibilities. It is clear that consumer and legislative pressures are also building and are encouraging, or even forcing businesses and manufacturers to take dramatic steps to improve sustainability. This category focuses on concrete measurements, strategic decisions made, binding action plans (not just greenwashing) completed to support the company's determination in the field of sustainability.

1. Do you measure sustainability (CO2 footprint) at all and how?
2. Is there a defined and concrete reduction target and what does it say?
3. Is there a clear, approved action plan for this? In which areas and with which targets do you aim to achieve the set sustainability targets? Can you submit a top-line summary of it?
4. In the area of sustainability, would you like to mention or submit any other achievement that enforces your application?

Please answer each of the questions 1-4 in the field below.

Support your listed success, concept or milestones with evidence (fact and figures, videos, infographics, statistics) to underpin your achievement. Be precise and concise and relate concretely to the respective question. Uploading generic information material such as the latest annual report/latest sustainability report is not desired and rather counterproductive
