The IFOY organization has announced the nominations for the IFOY AWARD 2024 and once again made a hard selection. From a field of 35 companies, 15 intralogistics providers from six countries qualified for the final with a total of 17 devices and solutions, including four start-ups.

The intralogistics specialists AGILOX, Crown, GLOBE Fuel Cell Systems, HWArobotics, Innok Robotics, Jungheinrich, MEYSENS, RAVAS, SAFELOG, SSI SCHÄFER and STILL can win one of the internationally coveted trophies. BOX ID Systems, Brightpick, CIP Mobility and CYBRID are in the final of the “IFOY Start-up of the Year” spin-off award.

“The nomination round was exceptionally tough. More than half of the applicants did not make it to the final round,” says Anita Würmser, Chairperson of the IFOY jury. “All the more clearly the finalists reflect the megatrends of our time. Starting with increasingly sophisticated warehouse technology and extending to the meanwhile impressive range of applications of mobile robotics and AI through to highly innovative components and increasingly complex customer projects. Efficiency, scalability, and future readiness are in demand and the IFOY Audit will show who has the edge.” Würmser expects a tough debate in the jury sessions to decide the six winning trophies, which will be awarded in June in Baden near Vienna in Lower Austria.

IFOY nominees at TEST CAMP INTRALOGISTICS

Due to its expertise, the IFOY AWARD is a highly respected innovation award in intralogistics with a global reputation. The selection is preceded by an extensive audit with various nomination and test cycles. The products and solutions nominated for the final undergo the IFOY test series and the scientific innovation check. The nominees are not compared directly with each other, but with their respective rivals on the market. In addition, jurors from 19 nations and their advisory teams from the industry travel to the event to assess the finalists themselves.

Innovation enthusiasts can test the IFOY finalists hands-on at the TEST CAMP INTRALOGISTICS on April 10 and 11. In addition to the 17 IFOY finalists, more than 100 innovations will be available for testing on 10,000 square meters of hall space. 1500 participants are expected.

The award ceremony will take place on June 14 in the imperial city of Baden, just outside Vienna. Thanks to a cooperation with the Austrian HERMES.Wirtschafts.Forum, the Congress Center and Casino Baden in Lower Austria will provide a spectacular backdrop for the awards ceremony. Up until then, the result will remain a secret – both for the finalists and for the public.
