The Munich Digital Innovation Award is presented annually by the City of Munich, together with Digitale Stadt München eV, to the most innovative company with a future-oriented concept. Participants initially submitted written applications. A jury consisting of Jörg Ochs, CIO of Stadtwerke München (municipal utilities), Christof Schäfer from Airbus Defence and Space, and Michael Zaddach, Senior Digital Advisor at Munich Airport, then selected eight finalists. Each of these finalists created a three-minute video. The winners were then selected, and the top three winners were honored at Digicon. Bernhard Eller from Referat für Arbeit und Wirtschaft of the City of Munich and Claudia Linnhoff-Popien, publisher of the magazine Digitale Welt (Digital World), presented the awards. All videos are available on the Digital conference website available.
