Washington, DC--The Optical Society (OSA; www.osa.org) and Laser Focus World (LFW; Nashua, NH; www.laserfocusworld.com) are proud to announce that all CLEO conference exhibitors may now enter their new products/services in the 2013 CLEO/LFW Innovation Awards. The Innovation Awards program maximizes exposure of your company and product. The 2013 CLEO/LFW Innovation Awards submission deadline is 27 March 2013, 11:59 PM EDT (03.59 GMT).

Winners of the Innovation Award reach top industry decision makers in attendance at CLEO (www.cleoconference.org), the premier laser conference. They also get premium exposure through CLEO's partnership with Laser Focus World such as a feature story in LFW. Your company will obtain recognition by peers, industry leaders, and potential customers during a special presentation at the CLEO: 2013 Plenary Session and during the Exhibitor Breakfast. You will gain additional visibility in official conference materials on-site (Conference Program, Exhibit Buyers' Guide) and in a CLEO press release, as well as signage at the conference.

This year, applying is easy. We've simplified the process for 2013: answer just three questions about your product or service. That’s it! And as part of the application process, you will be automatically entered for a chance to win the new iPad3.

Visit the submission site for more on award details and submission requirements. We look forward to seeing your entries.
