TOP100 Innovator 2022

GAL Digital is again among the TOP100 most Innovative Companies in Germany

27 Jun 2022

Germany in 2040: How will we use smartphones? Will we still be Googling? How digital is the retail trade? GAL Digital, an agency based in Hungen, Germany, is concerned with these and many other issues of the future. As an innovation leader, it develops forward-looking web and software solutions, apps and online marketing concepts. For this, the agency has now been awarded the Top 100 Innovation Prize for the fifth time. Science journalist Ranga Yogeshwar presented the award last Friday at the German SME Summit in Frankfurt's Jahrhunderthalle.

AGENCY IS ONE OF THE 100 MOST INNOVATIVE MEDIUM-SIZED

With the "TOP 100" award, GAL Digital can once again count itself among the 100 most innovative companies in the German SME sector. The award is presented in a scientific selection process. The jury was particularly positive about the climate of innovation at GAL Digital. For Managing Director Daniel Gal, this is also the cornerstone for creative, innovative thinking: "Innovations are our business. But they don't just happen. With a positive mindset, you can get things off the ground and bring about innovations in a targeted way." In order to provide the approximately 40 employees with the optimal basis for this positive mindset, Managing Directors Daniel Gal and Kristian Kraft therefore also pay attention to an attractive working atmosphere, top-equipped workstations and an in-house gym. Thanks to completely digital workflows, paperwork is reduced to a minimum. This leaves more energy for fresh ideas.

CREATIVE FOR MEDIUM-SIZED BUSINESSES, LARGE CORPORATIONS - AND THE REGION

The GAL Digital team uses its innovative strength to develop future-proof digital solutions for customers. These range from regionally based retailers to global market leaders. The solutions developed include, for example, apps that uniformly digitize product sales via smartphone, tablet and PC and 3D databases with interactive visualization. For one project per year, GAL Digital takes a completely different approach. Then it's not about a specific customer, but about building up their own new business idea: "That's good training for free, creative thinking and always opens up paths to forward-looking ideas," says Daniel Gal.
