All new ideas start somewhere and companies who have a long-term vision when it comes to product development often reap the richest rewards.
The Research and Development category includes organizations that have demonstrated a commitment to the research and development of new products and/or new processes.
This can include discovering or creating a unique material, transferring a research or technology development to practice, improving the performance of an existing product or creating a new simulation or design tools.
The category also includes companies that have made significant investments into their R&D processes.

Submitting case studies
All companies and institutions are invited to submit evidence to the rankings research via the submission of case studies through our Submission Portal. Case studies are any projects, deals or news related to the company in the 12 months back from our submission deadline.
For each case study you should explain the following details of the project:
- Aims
- Challenges
- Process
- Key personnel
- Innovative or novel elements
- Outcome (including effect on your business)
Case studies will be taken into consideration for all relevant ranking categories.
Submitting your case studies is the best way to ensure that we are aware of the innovative and outstanding work you are doing so you get the credit you deserve.
