As we have in the past years, CIO is identifying asset management, consultant/advisory and service provider firms that drive innovation in institutional investing.

On October 16, at Chelsea Piers in New York City, we will host both the Influential Investors Forum and our Industry Innovation Awards celebration, where we will announce this year’s winners.

Save the date, because you’ll want to be in the room to meet finalists, participate in engaging discussions and join the excitement as the winners are announced.

In February, we opened the Industry Innovation Awards – Asset Management & Servicing application period to CIO registrants and our friends and partners in the industry. The application asked for details about performance, innovative strategies, contributions to the industry and drivers of success. Categories awarded each year may differ depending on the categories in which we receive applications.

A panel of internal judges at CIO selects the award finalists and winners. No one pays, or is paid, a fee to participate in the awards program.
