Innovation Awards
Salon des Maires et des Collectivités
The Innovation Awards Competition of the Mayors and Local Authorities Exhibition, organized jointly with the Biodiversity Exhibition, recognizes each year an innovative solution or collaboration carried out with a local authority.
The competition includes 7 categories, each of which may reward both an innovative solution and/or an innovative collaboration.
An innovation that contributes to biodiversity protection may also be distinguished.
This initiative follows an annual cycle, enabling each edition to highlight new projects that support and advance local territories.
Who can take part ?
As every year, the award was open to all stakeholders working alongside local authorities, including:
-
Public organizations: institutions, operators, semi‑public bodies, and State agencies
-
Private companies
-
Associations
Applications for the Innovation Awards will open soon and will close on November 1 at 11:59 PM.
The pitches and the awards ceremony will take place at the trade show on Tuesday, November 24, 2026.
Your biodiversity-focused innovation can apply in several categories!
