Our 2023 awards were the biggest to date, with individual awards for the UK, DACH and North American regions for the first time, as well as our online global ceremony.
Our 2023 sponsors
Our first ever in-person event was held in London and we return to England’s capital again in 2023 to crown the very best of the United Kingdom’s cloud talent. An unforgettable event at the InterContinental Hotel on Park Lane also helped raise money for St. Martin’s School in Kenya.
Our 2023 winners impressed the judges for the way they truly shone in their approach to cloud technology. From digital innovation to making the industry a better place for all, it was an outstanding year that made our judges’ task unenviable.
