Ventana Research today announced that nominations are now open for its 2016 Technology Leadership Awards. These Awards, presented annually, recognize organizations and individuals that have achieved notable success in leading change, increasing productivity and attaining superior business outcomes. The awards recognize individuals and organizations that exemplify the understanding that superior performance requires a clear vision, determination and the concerted efforts of a team.
Ventana Research invites all organizations and technology providers to nominate individuals and teams to be considered for the leadership awards. Award recipients will be selected based upon leadership, business and technology criteria in the specific business and/or IT category and the extent to which organizations have transformed business or IT processes.
The Leadership Awards and the ceremony at which they are presented have become an industry tradition. This year’s award recipients will be announced and presented to the market at the Leadership Awards Webcast Ceremony in November of 2016.
"The Leadership Awards have become a prestigious recognition of individuals and organizations globally and across all industries for over a decade," said Mark Smith, CEO and chief research officer of Ventana Research." As the leading business technology research and advisory services firm, our Technology Leadership Awards provide a focus on the successful use of technology across business and IT that honor the diligent work and commitment. Unlike other analyst firms who do not provide awards of recognition and miss the full potential of what technology is all about, our awards are a celebration of success for organizations and technology vendors.”
These Technology Leadership Awards are the largest business and technology awards program in the industry, with 29 awards spanning including areas like: Internet of Things, Cybersecurity and marketing excellence. Submissions are evaluated by Ventana Research based on the awards program criteria at www.ventanaresearch.com/awards, where interested organizations or individuals can download a submission form.
