Today we can reveal all the finalists for the highly anticipated Prolific North Tech Awards 2024.
The live awards ceremony will be returning to Manchester United Football Club on 28 November, where we’ll be celebrating the ambitious organisations, projects, teams and individuals contributing to the growth of the tech sectors across the North of England and Scotland.
Early bird tickets are now on sale here for the high-profile event until 24 October, where you will join hundreds of leaders across the tech ecosystem for a drinks reception, three-course meal before the awards presentation, then an after-party to celebrate your successes once all the winners have been revealed!
The finalists have been whittled down by an independent panel of judges in a rigorous two-step process. A big thank you to all of our judges this year – you can find out more about them and the judging process here.
But two categories are yet to be decided – these include Prolific Tech Leader of the Year and Prolific Tech Rising Star.
The winner of these categories will be decided by a combination of judges scores and public voting. Scroll to the end of the shortlist to find out who has been nominated and cast your votes here by 5pm on 18 October.
A big thanks also goes to our headline partner Car Finance 247 and the following category sponsors for helping us make this year’s awards a reality: Better Placed, Bruntwood SciTech and Sedulo.
