Welcome to the GXS Customer Awards Program!

The Customer Awards Program enables GXS to recognize both outstanding contributions to business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce, as well as innovative use of B2B e-commerce through GXS Trading Grid®. Winning participants will receive recognition throughout the B2B e-commerce industry. This may include being featured in a press release, an analyst review and on the GXS website. Benefits of participation include:

• Raise awareness within your market and assert yourself against your competitors
• Bolster existing marketing efforts to raise your profile
• Take advantage of GXS's award to expand your target customer base
• Generate content that can strengthen your website

Eligibility: Only projects that have been in production long enough to gauge real results are eligible to participate in this program.
