BGL is proud to announce it was ranked 4th Most Innovative Technology Company in Australia and New Zealand on the 2023 Financial Review BOSS Most Innovative Companies list.
Now in its 12th year, the Most Innovative Companies list assesses the innovation prowess of Australian and New Zealand organisations, with the final result judged by a panel of experts and assessed by Inventium specialists. This year, the list attracted more than 700 nominations.
“We are thrilled to be ranked the 4th Most Innovative Technology Company in Australia and New Zealand on the 2023 Financial Review BOSS Most Innovative Companies list. This is an enormous achievement and I am extremely proud of each and every member of the BGL Team,” said BGL’s Managing Director Ron Lesh. “This is the 3rd time in 5 years BGL has been named in the top 10 list of Most Innovative Technology Companies, having ranked 5th in 2019 and 9th in 2020.”
“BGL’s submission for the 2023 Most Innovative Companies list highlighted the latest addition to the BGL cloud product suite, BGL SmartDocs 360,” continued Lesh. “Currently in BETA, BGL SmartDocs 360 is an AI-powered paper-to-data solution that helps businesses unlock their full potential by transforming paper documents into smart digital data.”
“What makes BGL SmartDocs 360 so exciting and innovative is its use of artificial intelligence and advanced deep learning algorithms for document processing. Unlike other solutions that require the creation of templates for each document layout, BGL SmartDocs 360 learns from documents submitted through its unique training engine. Once learned, it will permanently process the document type, even if the layout of the document changes. The document can be either a PDF or an image.”
“The solution provides both Retail and Developer versions, meaning it can be integrated into any software solution or used by any business to convert paper into data,” added Lesh.
James Luo, Head of Development at BGL, said: “Recognising the transformative power of automated document processing, BGL helps eliminate the burden of manual data entry. Our Development team’s commitment to innovation, supported by BGL’s leadership and our partnership with AWS, fills me with pride.”
The announcement comes just weeks after BGL was recognised as an ABA100® Winner for Business Innovation in The Australian Business Awards 2023 for BGL SmartDocs 360.
