Innovator of the Year 2017

August 16, 2017 - Baltimore, MD

The Daily Record Announces 2017 Innovator of the Year Honorees

The Daily Record has named Karen Barbour, President of The Barbour Group, an Innovator of the Year.

The Daily Record began the Innovator of the Year awards in 2002 as a way to recognize Marylanders and Maryland-based companies for their innovative spirit – for creating new products, new programs, new services or new processes that have helped their companies, industries or communities.

For this year’s honorees, their innovative achievements took place between January 2016 and July 2017.

Innovator of the Year nominees were asked to complete an application that explained their innovation and the impact it has made on Maryland. The nominations were judged on four basic criteria:  originality, power, challenge and value.

"Innovators are constantly creating, improving and creating again. They make a huge difference in people’s lives, in the economy and in the success of our region," said Suzanne Fischer-Huettner, publisher of The Daily Record. "The Daily Record is pleased to recognize this year's Innovators of the Year and their passion, creativity and drive that result in new products and processes that have a positive impact on Maryland and beyond."

The 2017 Innovator of the Year awards will be presented Oct. 18 at a reception/dinner starting at 5:30 p.m. at the American Visionary Art Museum, 800 Key Highway in Baltimore. Winners will be profiled in a special magazine that will be inserted into the Oct. 19 issue of The Daily Record and available online at www.TheDailyRecord.com.

Sponsors of The Daily Record’s 2017 Innovator of the Year awards include Presenting Sponsor Stevenson University and Visionary Sponsors Epsilon Registration and VPC, Inc.
