Our teams wander the show floor and see a variety of products from hundreds of vendors. Each team is looking for something different and brings a unique perspective to the show coverage. Because of this, we award our TPN Picks based on team, allowing a diverse selection of products to be shown and honored. This year we offer 10 awards to TPN's favorite brands.
