On Monday evening, the Interactive Customer Experience (ICX) Association handed out their 2015 ICX Association Excellence Awards to 14 winners in the categories of digital signage, kiosk & self-service and mobile, as applied across many vertical markets. The awards, judged by a panel of 24 industry experts, recognize achievement in the use of technology to create outstanding customer experiences. The awards ceremony, held at Skydeck Chicago on the 103rd floor of the former Sears Tower, was part of the 2015 ICX Summit, a conference devoted to showcasing the many ways technology can be used to create transcendent customer experiences.
Scott Slucher, the Executive Director of the ICX Association, was impressed with the depth of quality in all the submissions. “Having looked at every submission, along with the judge’s evaluations of those entries, it’s encouraging to me to see so much good work being done with technology to create transcendent customer experiences,” he said.
