Calling all Houston innovators in the energy transition space — an annual awards program wants to recognize you.

For the third year, InnovationMap, EnergyCapital's sister site, is hosting an awards program that will recognize the best of the rest in Houston's innovation ecosystem. The awards program will be on Wednesday, November 8, at Silver Street Studios, with tickets going on sale later this month.

The program features a dozen awards this year — some of which should be interesting to the Houston energy transition community:

• Hardtech Business, honoring an innovative company developing and commercializing a physical technology
• Digital Solutions Business, honoring an innovative company developing and programming a digital solution to a problem in an industry
• Sustainability Business, honoring an innovative company providing a solution within renewables, climatetech, clean energy, alternative materials, circular economy, and beyond
• Corporate of the Year, honoring a corporation that supports startups and/or the Houston innovation community

The nomination period — which includes submitting nominations on behalf of yourself or others — will close September 19. Nominees will be sent an application, which will be due October 4. A panel of judges will review the applications and finalists will be announced and notified ahead of the event.
