Nominations extended for Reseller News Innovation Awards 2023 – Reseller News
Nominations have been extended for the Reseller News Innovation Awards 2023, celebrating excellence across the New Zealand channel including start-ups, partners, distributors, vendors and personal success.
Set for Wednesday 18 October, the Innovation Awards 2023 will bring the channel together under the Reseller News roof at Cordis Auckland.
In a step away from predictable awards programs, entire local ecosystem expertise will not only be acknowledged and celebrated, but transformative examples of partner best practice amplified further via Reseller News — the leading business technology publication in New Zealand.
Mirroring the market, Innovation Awards 2023 will recognise the standout work of managed service providers, system integrators and value-added resellers, complemented by bleeding edge start-ups, cloud specialists, independent software vendors, consultancy giants, boutique agencies and application developers.
Likewise, innovation at vendor and distributor levels will also be magnified, recognising leading champions of the channel, creative thinkers, consistent performers and market leaders.
To achieve this, Innovation Awards 2023 will honour the channel across eight categories, spanning Partner Innovation, Tech Innovation, NZ-wide Innovation, Start-up Innovation, Personal Innovation, Vendor Innovation, Distributor Innovation and Hall of Fame.
Nominations are now open and have been extended till Friday 4 August 2023.
Nominations can be submitted by an individual, an employee, employer or business partner with only New Zealand-based individuals and examples eligible. Finalists and winners are selected by an executive judging panel of business leaders from partner, vendor and distributor organisations.
Partner Innovation recognises customer innovation and excellence across the key market segments of Enterprise, Mid-Market and SMB, in addition to pioneering technology specialists and collaborative providers.
