Last call! Entries in the inaugural NutraIngredients Awards close today

If you count an immunity product in your range then you could win the Finished Product of the Year – Immune​​ category and be recognised within and beyond the industry at our gala awards​​ ceremony in Geneva on May 6 during Vitafoods Europe.

Innovation in formulation, format, delivery system and specialised science are what we are looking for. Does your product match these criteria? Submit your entry and your product could come out on top after being scrutinised by our crack panel of experts​​.

Or what about our Editor’s Choice Award​​ in association with Finished Products Europe. Our editors will use every grain of their experience to identify truly unique nutrition concepts that deliver scientifically-backed benefits or maybe even define a new niche.

“We’re scoping for strikingly marketed products with formulas that deliver real health benefits to people or help them optimise their health,” ​said NutraIngredients senior editor, Shane Starling. “Some of the entries so far are very impressive so the bar is set high but it can always go higher. We hope to see more entries before the window of opportunity closes before the big night in Geneva in May.”​

Other categories are :

Readers’ Ingredient of the Year​ (​sponsored by Vitafoods Europe) ​ Judged by NutraIngredients readers, the recipe for success in this category will combine efficacy with proven safety and real innovation.

University Research of the Year​​ This category will reward research that takes the nutrition sector to a new level of understanding – with clear potential for the development of market-changing new products.

Startup Ingredient of the Year​​ The award will go to a start-up company less than four years old producing the most commercially viable, innovative and effective new ingredient.

Finished Product of the Year – Sport & Energy​​
Whether a novel format or innovative blend of ingredients, your product will go further than the competition to help athletes perform faster and stronger.

Finished Product of the Year – Heart & Brain​​
The winning product in this category will demonstrably protect and optimise heart and/or brain health in a way that sets it apart in a competitive market segment.

“The inaugural NutraIngredients Awards are not only an excellent opportunity to reward innovation and initiative, but also to involve our highly authoritative readership in the process,” ​said Graham Twyford, head of food division for EMEA/APAC.

“With a digital community of over 320,000 industry stakeholders, we have no doubt that the NutraIngredients ‘Readers’ Ingredient of the Year’ will be hotly contested along with the other six categories.”  ​
