The awards mark the excellence of the industry that is driving the UK's tech economy and becoming an increasingly important and strategic part of the UK’s and Ireland’s future.
Techworks’ Sophie Ericsson commented, "The shortlist represents true diversity across the industry, ranging from smaller companies to global corporations.”
She continued, "A high number of strong compelling entries were received from across the industry and the judges deliberated to whittle them down and select the shortlist.”
The winners will be announced at the TechWorks Gala Dinner & Awards Ceremony on November 6, London. During the ceremony, the winners of four additional awards, which were not open to general submission, will also be announced. Those are for: The Company of the Year Award; The Contribution to Industry Award; The Cyber Student of the Year in Automotive; The UKESF Scholar of the Year Award.
