INNOGRID announced on the 12th that it won the winner award in the communication institutional sector at the international design award 'Asia Design Prize 2025.'

The Asia Design Prize is Asia's largest international design award ceremony, which started in 2016. This year, 1,879 works were submitted from 22 countries around the world. A panel of 42 judges, composed of design experts, selected the final winners through two rounds of fair evaluation in three institutional sectors: industrial design, space and architecture, and communication.

Previously, INNOGRID won the user interface institutional sector at the 'Red Dot Design Award,' one of the world's three major design awards, for its solution SECloudit. At that time, it presented a standard UI design for cloud operations management through user-friendly design, leading to improvements in cloud observability functionality.

At this year's Asia Design Prize, INNOGRID submitted its character 'INNO CREW' (hereinafter referred to as INNO Crew) and won the winner award in the communication institutional sector. INNO Crew consists of five character families related to the cloud, including developers, planners, and AI robots. Each character is given a narrative to help explain INNOGRID's cloud solutions easily and make the intangible service of the cloud more relatable. In the future, INNOGRID plans to produce the existing 2D characters in 3D for use in promotional and marketing content.

Yoon Sang-jun, Head of Team at INNOGRID's product design team, who led the creation of INNO Crew, noted, 'I consider it an honor to receive an award at an international design awarding ceremony with a corporate character, which is rare in the IT industry,' adding, 'We will continue to do our best to provide high-quality designs and communication content that match our technically excellent solutions.'
