The Techworld Awards recognise and reward the very highest standards of individual and collective achievement. With over 200 entries each year, they are considered a benchmark throughout the computer industry. The unique blend of awards for products and networking teams and individuals recognise both sides of the industry - the product vendors and the network managers and teams who implement the solutions.

Entrants are evaluated on strategy, creativity, innovation and effectiveness. An independent panel of judges of highly respected individuals from the IT industry and Techworld editors meet to select the shortlists and final winners. The culmination of the awards is a glittering Gala Dinner at a central London location where the winners are announced.
