What is Innovation?
Innovation is the category with one of the widest scopes within the Excellence Awards as it looks at novel new approaches in every area, from the fruits of research and development to novel new business practices. What all the ranked entities have in common is the demonstration of new concepts not just within their own business but in the sector as a whole.
The category includes any projects that demonstrate an innovative approach to the market. The category crosses over with many of our other categories and can include new products, novel product features, new business practices, new marketing and sales strategies and more.

Themes
Within the Innovation category two clear themes emerge. On the hand there is the evolution of existing technologies with new aircraft concepts, components and the use of new materials. On the other side we see the increasingly introduction of disruptive concepts such as AI, unmanned systems, 3D printing and virtual environments.
While the sector is not always seen as being at the forefront of environmental initiatives there has been a notable uptick in the introduction and testing of new concepts such as alternative fuels and decarbonization efforts. These are also being developed with one eye on energy security.
The increased use of AI and the evolution of unmanned aircraft systems and drones also points to a desire within the industry to utilize technology to reduce risk to combat personnel and provide them with more tools and information to back up decision making.
