Public voting for the RTIH Retail Technology Hot 100 ends Friday

Retail Technology Innovation Hub editor Scott Thompson curated the initial shortlist of 150 companies based on their market influence over the past year. These firms span a diverse range of sectors, including supply chain management, mobile commerce, and payment infrastructure. A panel of industry experts—including leaders from Walmart, Holland & Barrett, Boots, and JD Sports—is evaluating these candidates based on their ability to solve retailer pain points, their technical innovation, and their real-world deployment traction.

The final selection will be determined by a combination of this expert feedback and the ongoing public vote. Once finalized, the top 100 companies will be featured in the upcoming edition of the RTIH printed magazine and across the organization's digital channels this August. Leigh Davidson, Managing Director at 3D Cloud, noted that the program serves as a vital platform for recognizing the exceptional technological advancements currently defining the future of customer experience.
