The Innovative & Inventive Excellence Design Award is a prestigious award which was established in 1970 by the Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun with the support of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, and the cooperation of the Japan Chamber of Commerce and Industry and various industrial organizations. The award aims to promote and develop the design of industrial products. It comprehensively evaluates and selects products based on various criteria, including quality, safety, design, as well as economic efficiency and marketability. Additionally, many of the award-winning products advocate for being skill-less to address labor shortages, proving that our initiatives contribute to solving broader social issues, not just within the printing industry.
