Last week we sponsored The Leeds Digital Festival Awards alongside our friends at Ward Hadaway.
The awards were held at Headrow House and were a chance to recognise and celebrate just some of the fantastic innovations, projects, people and start-ups who are making a real impact in the Leeds digital sector.
"This award is for the business all rounder. Individuals who are constantly driving innovation, combining creative thinking, problem solving etc to make their ideas a reality."
"This award recognises individuals, tech hubs, incubators, universities that are instrumental in supporting, nurturing, connecting and creating the invaluable networks in the heart of Leeds."
"Tech innovation of the year. This award recognises the ground breaking research, project or work of a company that pushes the boundaries of possibility in tech and digital."
"This award recognises the hard work of individuals within a company or organisation who are continually going above and beyond to contribute to the Leeds tech community."
"This award celebrates the hard work and success of breakthrough tech and digital startups in Leeds."
A massive congratulations to all those nominated, and of course to the winners! What was fantastic to see, was so many who came along to cheer on the nominees and so many who are clearly supportive in growing the digital sector in our city.
This years festival was bigger and better than ever before with over 150 events over the course of the two weeks, with the final week hosting more events than tech haven San Francisco. Very impressive.
