With the European Innovation Impact Award 2017, WOM can already enjoy their second high-profile innovation award in 2017. After the success at TOP100 in the summer, WOM innovation manager Nina Spiri accepted the award at the end of September at the first ideasEurope conference, in Brussels.
WOM was picked in the “Best Innovation Management in Healthcare” category. The jury justified its decision with the clear structuring of our integrated innovation management and the high-value contribution to the further development of the company.
“The award is confirmation that we are absolutely on the right path with the fusion of ideas and innovation management.”

WOM mingling with an illustrious number of companies: Major conglomerates such as Diebold Nixdorf and Continental are also on the list of winners, as are other companies from the health sector – which the promoter of ideasEurope especially highlights – such as Otto Bock Healthcare, auric Hörsysteme, and Humanics.
However, the summit didn’t only address the prizewinners: ideasEurope is a network for decision makers and innovation managers from companies who want to shape the future successfully with ideas. As a result, representatives from more than 50 companies used the event for an international exchange. The Brussels venue offered the best conditions for driving European networking forward, bringing together politics and business, and further improving the framework conditions for innovation-friendly developments.
