To be successful in this fast-paced market, companies must have flexible innovation processes and good idea management. The senior management itself dedicates 80 percent of its working time to innovation. To further expand its leading position, the IT specialists also rely on close cooperation with renowned scientific institutions. Success in innovation is also measured by the success of prudsys AG customers. Many of the most successful online retailers have been using the prudsys Realtime Decisioning Engine (prudsys RDE for short) for years. That includes 1-2-3.tv, OTTO, bonprix and Klingel. To sum up, prudsys entered the TOP 100 innovation competition with a very strong case.
Over 4000 companies were interested in participating in the TOP 100 this year. The companies were evaluated by the Department of Entrepreneurship and Innovation at the Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration. They looked at over 100 parameters in five categories: “Innovation-friendly Senior Management”, “Climate of Innovation”, “Innovative Processes and Organization”, “Innovations Marketing” and “Innovatory Success”. Among the companies in the TOP 100, 97 are national market leaders and 32 are world market leaders. The TOP 100 mentor, business journalist and TV host Ranga Yogeshwar, honored the top innovators as part of the German medium-sized business summit on 24 June in Essen.
