Submissions are allowed from communications service provider (CSP) end-user organizations only, i.e., licensed or regulated institutions that provide communications services to individuals and businesses. Submissions are NOT permitted from technology vendors or technology services companies. Any such submissions will be disqualified. Eligible organizations can enter up to five submissions per year for the Gartner Eye on Innovation Awards for Communications Service Providers.
To be eligible, an initiative must have been launched during the period of January 1, 2025 through May 15, 2026. Only submissions written in English will be accepted. The project or initiative could be in any stage of development, from a pilot to commercially launched as a product/service. However, note that Gartner’s assessment framework weighs more favorably those projects that are already delivering tangible benefits and results (both qualitative and quantitative).
The awards are open to both Gartner clients and non-clients alike. There are no participation fees.
