Providence, RI, August 22, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Nominations and applications are now being accepted for the 2013 Tech10 awards. In its third year, the awards program – established by Tech Collective, Rhode Island’s industry association for Information Technology and Bioscience – recognizes the ten most accomplished technologists in the state’s IT, digital media, and entrepreneurial arenas.
Individually, Tech10 recognizes Rhode Island IT practitioners and entrepreneurs who excel in their practice, demonstrate a passion for contributing to the success of others, and are pioneering in their technological and career achievements. For the technology community, Tech10 is the opportunity for Rhode Island business and industry to identify its exceptional participants, and its future leaders.
“Across Rhode Island’s IT service companies as well as its private sector IT departments, there are 13,500 IT professionals in our state,” said Kathie Shields, executive director of Tech Collective. “Many of those professionals are doing extraordinary things to enable their company and their clients, whether external or internal. They are networkers of not only the hardware and software, but also of Rhode Island’s IT community – building comradery, collaboration, and innovation. They are a growing driver of Rhode Island’s economic prosperity and future leadership. We want to recognize them. And we are proud to do so through our Tech10 Awards program.”
