With the release of the shortlist, it’s over to our judges to take on the incredibly difficult task of choosing winners.
One of the unique aspects of the UK IT Industry Awards is its rigorous judging process. Unlike other industry accolades, these awards are judged by independent panels of IT leaders who engage directly with nominees, ensuring that winners are chosen based on their real-world impact and contribution, rather than polished marketing presentations.
Make sure to join us on 12th November in London, where we will celebrate the winners for their genuine leadership and innovation in the field of IT. Finalists can click here to book a table.
