Vanguard Awards: An Overview

The Vanguard Awards instituted by Unfold, is a pioneering, one of its kind, cross industry recognition program focused on Intrapreneurship in multiple forms.

Why Intrapreneurship?

Intrapreneurs are employees who work with a spirit of ownership as in entrepreneurship. Employees with Intrapreneurial mindsets have emerged as important drivers of innovation within organizations. Very few organizations recognize the pivotal role of Intrapreneurs in their future success. They fall short of nurturing this untapped potential, formally or informally. Vanguard Awards aims to change this by inspiring organizations to celebrate exemplary individuals, teams and initiatives.

Recognizing and Motivating Intrapreneurial Excellence

The Vanguard Awards program aims to acknowledge, reward, and inspire intrapreneurial efforts, firmly believing that celebrating role models will encourage more organizations and leaders to tread this path.

India’s Only Intrapreneurial Recognition Program

Vanguard Awards stands as India's sole recognition program for intrapreneurs, serving as a unique initiative to motivate companies and leaders to unlock the potential of intrapreneurship. The program has experienced significant growth, with over 50 organizations participating in the second edition, up from 10 in the inaugural edition.

Distinguished Past Winners

Vanguard Awards boasts an impressive roster of past winners, including renowned brands such as Titan, Samsung Electronics, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Mercedes-Benz Research and Development India, Tata Elxsi, Accenture, EverLoop by SAP, Genpact and more.

Scaling Up for Greater Impact

Building on the resounding success of the initial editions, Vanguard Awards is now poised to expand its reach beyond traditional corporates to more sectors and introduce additional award categories. Notably, academia and startups are invited to nominate teams for intrapreneurial excellence in social and business impact categories.
