Lextech Labs’ iRa C3 video surveillance software recently received the Chicago Innovation Award in a ceremony at the Goodman Theater in Chicago.

The Chicago Innovation Awards, established in 2002, highlight winners’ innovations that are uniquely filling unmet needs, spark a competitive response in the marketplace, exceed market expectations, achieve financial success and improve people’s lives.

“Winning the Chicago Innovation Award is such a honor for our company,” said Jeff Gibson, president of Lextech Labs. “We felt strongly that we had delivered a solution that is protecting lives and changing the way surveillance systems are used. By winning this award here in Chicago where we are based, allows Lextech Labs to stand proud amongst other Chicago based company winners like Abbott Labs, Molex, and Motorola.”
