Gatwick Airport, Dell, Jimmy Choo, Jessops, CNN and British Airways are among the winners of the awards which recognise pioneering developments in digital marketing and e-commerce.

Hiscox wins both the B2B and Online Advertising awards for its location-based targeting of insurance adverts, while Shutl is named the winner of the Innovation in E-commerce category for its “game-changing” service which enables shoppers to specify when they want to receive deliveries.

The award for Most Innovative Digital Agency goes to Redweb, while LBi / bigmouthmedia wins the award for Most Innovative Digital Marketing Team.

The full list of winners and highly commended entries for the 21 different categories is below.

The winning entries were selected by Econsultancy and an international panel selected from companies themselves known for innovation such as BBC, Mercedes-Benz, Dell, Telefonica (O2), Dupont and BT. The awards, now in their third year, attracted more than 350 entries.

Digital thought leaders such as Paul Boag, Sam Decker and Ian Jindal were also part of the judging panel, as well as Econsultancy CEO Ashley Friedlein, Director of Innovation Chris Lake, and Research Director Linus Gregoriadis.

Econsultancy CEO Ashley Friedlein said: “2010 was another exceptional year for digital innovation, and this is reflected by the extremely high calibre of awards entries we have received from around the world.

“It is always difficult to narrow down so many great entries but we believe the list of winners and commended entrants is a showcase for some of the best developments in this space over the last year.”

The Innovation Awards were set up as part of Econsultancy’s commitment to recognising innovation in the digital sector, as demonstrated by its regularly updated Innovation Report.

The Winners Dinner will take place on Wednesday 9 February 2011 in central London. Winners receive complimentary tickets as part of their prize. Otherwise, seats cost £195+VAT.
