28th June 2006
Royal Courts of Justice, London

We are delighted to announce the winners of the 2006 Techworld Awards. The awards presentations themselves were held at a glittering gala evening at the Royal Courts of Justice on 28th June 2006. Once again, the judges had a difficult task in choosing a winner from a host of excellently planned projects and some hard working teams. We also received a record-breaking number of product entries this year, making the competition even harder than ever. We would like to thank the independent panel of judges for their help and time in selecting the winners. We had some lively debate at times but as ever the judging panel were impressed by the high level of innovation, ingenuity and dedication shown by teams and companies throughout the UK and Europe.

WHITE PAPERS

  • BPM, SOA and Web 2.0: Business transformation or train wreck?
    Organisations must not only promote change from within, but they must also be agile enough to quickly adapt to evolving markets, policies, regulations, and business models. Fortunately, the convergence of a trio of technologies and business practices—business process management (BPM), service-oriented architecture (SOA), and Web 2.0—is providing a solution.
  • The Social Enterprise: Using Social Enterprise Applications to Enable the Next Wave of Knowledge Worker Productivity
    On the face of it, social software seems an unlikely example of enterprise collaboration. Aren’t social networks a fad? What does sharing photos or connecting with college buddies have to do with getting work done?
  • Unified Threat Management
    This white paper looks at the emergence and inadequacies of unified threat management (UTM) products, and introduces a new solution from Check Point.
  • Delivering an Effective Backup and Recovery Service
    Rapid data growth and the need for greater data availability place a demand on organisations to provide an effective backup and recovery service. Yet businesses have often been satisfied with just minimal provision. It is only when a disaster arrives that it becomes clear how inadequate this approach is. This white paper helps organisations make the right decisions about how best to prevent data loss and potentially catastrophic IT failure.
  • Oracle Universal Content Management
    The key features and benefits to an enterprise of Oracle's Universal Content Management solution. Easily manage content through the whole lifecycle, streamline business processes and improve customer service and relationships.
