Nominate a peer—or yourself—for these awards and help us acknowledge and honor our members' exceptional work.

GTIA Innovate Awards

The GTIA Innovate Awards celebrate IT service providers (ITSPs) who have moved beyond AI experimentation to deliver real, deployed solutions with measurable business impact. Focused on both customer facing and internal AI innovation, the program spotlights verified implementations—not concepts or pilots. Finalists present their solutions live at ChannelCon, the channel’s most prestigious stage, with winners selected through a combination of expert judging and attendee voting—ensuring recognition is credible, unbiased, and grounded in real-world application.

Submissions are closed. Winners will be announced at ChannelCon, August 3-5, in San Diego.
