Title: Tech Trailblazers Awards early bird ends Friday August 17th Post by: RealWire on August 13, 2012, 10:01:23 PM LONDON, UK – August 13th 2012 – The Tech Trailblazers Awards early bird rates closes just shy of midnight Pacific time this Friday, leaving enterprise tech startups with just a few days to make savings on their awards submissions fee. The discounted rates of $250 for the first entry and just $100 for any subsequent submissions means that entrants make attractive savings especially when submitting multiple entries. With stacks of prizes from the $1million dollar prize fund up for grabs, a comprehensive promotion campaign by the organizers plus mentoring from the crème de la crème of the VC and Technology industry, the early bird means even better ROI for entrants.
The Tech Trailblazers Awards celebrate and reward innovation in the following areas: big data, cloud, emerging markets, mobile technology, networking, IT security, data storage, sustainable IT and virtualization. The Tech Trailblazers Awards prize fund, projected to be worth in excess of $1m, is supported by sponsors and industry partners including MIT/Stanford Venture Lab, the Cloud Security Alliance, Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA), Prezi, Computing, Startup America, RealWire, Lissted, Launchpad Europe, Mynewsdesk, Wazoku, and ExecEvent. All entrants to the Tech Trailblazers Awards get the chance to have their technology reviewed by some of the IT industry’s eminent influencers from around the world. The extensive judging panel reflects the Tech Trailblazers’ pioneering “community spirit” approach to enterprise IT awards. Information on how to enter the awards is here. The early-bird submissions fee is $250 for the first category with a deadline of August 17th at 11:59pm PT. Entry forms should be submitted before the final closing date of September 12th for consideration by the expert panel. The Tech Trailblazers Awards last week launched a Twitter campaign called #TTAwards #blazingTshirts to give followers the chance to win a limited-edition Tech Trailblazers Awards t-shirt. The tech community on Twitter will be asked to retweet the @techtrailblaze tweets of their favorite category logos. The winners will be drawn randomly after the awards submissions close at 23:59pm Pacific on September 12th (the same time as the awards submissions close). The contest is live now, so participants should follow the Tech Trailblazers Awards on Twitter now at http://www.twitter.com/techtrailblaze.
