About the Awards

There are two divisions : Start-up and Enterprise

The "Awards of NEXX AI in Corporate Innovation and Transformation" (Enterprise Division) recognize and celebrate large-scale corporations that have successfully developed, deployed, and scaled AI-powered solutions to fundamentally change their business models, enhance operational efficiency, foster a new culture of innovation, and deliver measurable, high-impact business value. The mission is to identify and promote best practices in responsible, effective, and transformative AI adoption across the enterprise landscape.

 

A panel of independent industry experts, academics, and enterprise leaders will evaluate submissions based on a weighted system:

Award Evaluation Criteria — Enterprise Division

Nominees will be assessed by (one or more) the following four pillars of excellence in corporate AI innovation and transformation:

1. Strategic Business Value & Measurable Impact 

The nominee must demonstrate quantifiable, high-impact outcomes resulting from AI adoption — including but not limited to revenue growth, operational efficiency gains, cost reduction, customer experience enhancement, or market expansion. Evidence must clearly link AI initiatives to tangible business performance.

2. Innovation & Technical Excellence

The solution must exhibit cutting-edge technical design, architectural sophistication, and superior performance. This includes novel application of AI/ML models, integration with enterprise systems, scalability, reliability, and continuous improvement through data-driven iteration.

 

3. Enterprise-Wide Scale & Organizational Transformation 

The initiative must have been successfully deployed across multiple business units, geographies, or functions — fundamentally reshaping processes, culture, or business models at scale. The nominee should show evidence of institutionalizing AI as a strategic capability, not merely a pilot project.

 

4. Responsible AI & Ethical Governance 

The organization must embed ethical principles into its AI lifecycle — including fairness, transparency, accountability, privacy, and human oversight. Nominees should provide examples of governance frameworks, bias mitigation practices, stakeholder engagement, and compliance with global standards for responsible AI.
