Concept and Innovation Awards

Ones to watch

27/02/2019

The finalists of the Baby Products Association’s 2019 Concept & Innovation Awards have been announced and four innovators have been invited to attend Harrogate International Nursery Fair to present their product ideas to the UK nursery industry.

A panel of judges, all industry experts, gathered in London in February to view the shortlisted entries first hand and after much deliberation the product ideas considered the most viable and innovative were chosen as finalists.

Visitors attending Harrogate can see these finalists first hand at the show in Hall Q – they include:

• Dorota Dyk with Medapti – a simple, but clever adaptor to safely and easily administer medicine to a baby using a standard infant syringe.
• 
  
• Eleonora Fois with Otto the Octopus – a weaning device to help young babies learn to chew and explore new food experiences with less mess and with a reduced risk of choking.
• 
• Richard Shaw with JRNY – an innovative new subscription-based travel system with interchangeable components to allow it to grow with your child.

• Christopher Melia with Cot Cool – a high tech cooling system to lower the temperature in a baby’s sleep environment on particularly hot days.

Once again sponsored by law firm 3Volution, the winner of the Concept & Innovation Award – which will be announced on Monday 25^th March at the show – will receive free IP legal advice to help them with the complexities of launching their product to market.
