The award was launched in 2010 by Digital Empowerment Foundation, one of the most influential & leading platforms to explore, recognize & honor the best practices in Mobile & Telecom Industry across South Asia.

CropLense, an innovative approach from iConcept, is a field enablement tool that helps farmers address crop issues faced by them in a cost-effective and timely manner. This offers an online forum where farmers or the field officers can post their queries about any agricultural issues and can get experts' advice using this app. Students, agro professionals, professors and consultants are the other targeted users, to collectively share knowledge and help the agro communities as a whole.

Mr. Ajay Kalavala, the MD & CEO of iConcept, said: "I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate all iConceptians on this achievement. Within 2 months of release of the product, getting this recognition is remarkable. Statistics reveal that 3.5% of the rural population of India currently has smartphones, which is a sizeable opportunity for CropLense considering there are 125 Million farmers in India. I am extremely confident with a vibrant iConcept team we can add more value to farming community through CropLense."
