Finalists announced in European IT and Software Excellence Awards 2019
The finalists for the European IT & Software Excellence Awards 2019, the leading pan-European awards for channels, ISVs, Solution Providers, Systems Integrators and their vendor and distributor partners – were announced today by IT Europa.
It was a record year for entrants, with over 450 projects submitted from across Europe in a wide range of categories. There were particularly numerous and detailed entries in the various Innovation categories, showing that the industry is alive to the possibilities of advanced technology provision, says John Garratt, chair of the judges’ panel and Editor of IT Europa.
A total of 96 solution provider entries, 57 ISV projects and 72 supplier entries from 37 countries have made the finals. The winners will be announced at the European IT & Software Excellence 2019 Awards Dinner at the Royal Garden Hotel, on 14 March 2019.
Now in their 11th year, the European IT & Software Excellence Awards are given for IT solutions that get to the heart of customer issues, delivering better business, a clearer understanding of data, and more efficient and profitable outcomes. The judges, with many decades of experience of IT industry involvement between them, have arrived at a list of finalists that they believe truly reflects both the strength of Europe's IT industry and many of the changes in direction occurring within it.
John Garratt: “We continue to push out the core message about just what the IT industry is capable of doing in changing how people, businesses and organisations function.”
The award winners will be announced on 14th March 2019 at a gala dinner and presentation ceremony.
