    “Emerging” RFID Entrepreneur

    Nov. 22, 2010
    Bob Moore, chairman and CEO of iGPS, was named in the Emerging category of Ernst & Young’s Entrepreneur of The Year awards. This program encourages entrepreneurial activity and recognizes leaders and visionaries who demonstrate innovation, financial success and personal commitment as they create and build world-class businesses.

    Moore was recognized for using technology to devise an innovative improvement to shipping pallets — and overcoming significant obstacles to bringing it to market. Specifically, the award spotlighted the advantages of radio-tracked plastic pallets deployed by major retailers and drug companies. As a result, iGPS’ market share went from 0.8% in its first year to 25% in 2010. Next year, iGPS will expand into France, Spain and the U.K.
