Bright Tech Future
Awards
Reward and recognise your top talent
The UK’s digital tech sector is punching well above its weight in the world and creating high value jobs right across the country for talented and motivated people. We want to celebrate the best of UK tech talent in an industry where 2.1 million people now work.
Recent research by Tech Nation shows that in five UK cities more than one in 10 of the population are employed in digital tech. From the tip of Sutherland in the North to the shores of Cornwall in the South, we are seeing digital tech businesses created and thriving, supported by an engaged and highly-skilled workforce. Now it’s time to shine a light on the 99% of people working in tech powered businesses who play a massive part in delivering success for their organisation and driving the digital economy – day in day out.
We’re calling on the fastest-growing companies across the country to help us identify their most talented team members who deserve recognition. Tech Nation, Her Majesty’s Government and the Digital Economy Council are hosting The Bright Tech Future Awards – a celebration to recognise exceptional tech talent this November in Westminster. The Bright Tech Future Awards brings together the unsung heroes building the UK’s fastest-growing companies.
Other awards celebrate investors and exceptional founders, but the Bright Tech Future Awards will recognise the essential people who are helping to build the UK’s global tech success, now and for the future.
Who >>
From HR manager and UX designer to project manager and DevOps Engineer, we want you to nominate the team members who have made a difference to your company.
