Exhibitors at RBTE, Europe's largest end-to-end retail solutions event, were invited to submit entries to take part in the Innovation Trail and Awards 2017 – and our expert industry panel of judges have now had their say on which businesses and their solutions will gain special focus at the expo next month.
The shortlisted entries will be featured in the Innovation Trail at RBTE, and highlighted on the ‘Winners Wall’, with the overall winner being announced at RBTE on the first day (Monday 8 May) at the Dilax Big Party in the Gloodoo Champagne Bar at 4.45pm.
The judging panel selected 16 innovations for the shortlist and over the next two weeks, Essential Retail will be introducing you to the clever technologies in a series of articles. This time, we take a look at Checkpoint Systems, Klarna, Qmatic and Xhockware.
