More and more the importance of innovation to the economic and social well-being of the nation is being recognised and members may also  be interested in the Entrepreneurs Award in Social Innovation which seeks to spotlight enterprises developing innovative social or environmental products or services for the benefit of a community, or wider society, in the same way that the Stationers’ Innovation Excellence Awards seek to focus on such developments in the  Communications and Content Industries.
