Comedian and actor Tom Allen helps celebrate technology
success
Organisations and individuals from the technology industry have
been recognised for their achievements at the Digital Revolution
Awards.
The awards, a not-for-profit initiative founded by Tenth
Revolution Group, hosted its fourth annual event at London’s
Grosvenor House hotel. The evening celebrates those impacting and
innovating across tech ecosystems including Microsoft, AWS, Google
Cloud, and Salesforce.
Sponsored by Microsoft and HSO, the awards were hosted by
comedian and actor Tom Allen as a packed audience also helped raise
over £10,000 for charity partners Teenage Cancer Trust and St
Martin’s School, Kenya.
“It was an incredibly special evening as we got the chance to
celebrate those who spend much of their time out of the spotlight,”
said Tenth Revolution Groups Chief Marketing Officer and Digital
Revolution Awards Co-founder Kashif Naqshbandi. “Applauding those
individuals and organisations who are truly making the tech
industry a better place to live and work is vital, as hearing about
their successes can only serve to push others on to achieve that
same recognition.”
A range of winners took to the stage to collect their trophies
and receive the acclaim of the crowd, including Conga, who won
Digital Transformation Project of the Year, and The Travel
Corporation, who scooped Diversity and Inclusion Employer of the
Year.
Brooke Edmonds, Head of People and Culture at The Travel
Corporation added: “The team have done an awesome job of allowing
everyone to bring their authentic selves to work, and our managers
endorse that. All our employees are aware of our DEI efforts. It's
a journey that isn't over for us, but this is definitely a nice
stop on the way!”
In the individual categories, Emma Wright walked away with the
Outstanding Leader of the Year prize, with Akshata Sawant and Lewis
Baybutt named joint winners of Rising Star of the Year. “There were
so many fantastic names up there,” said Akshata. “So it’s really
exciting. This is a humbling experience and super honourable.”
Winners from the show now take part in the Digital Revolution
Awards’ Global awards, where they go up against entrants from
around the world in a ‘best of the best’ ceremony broadcast via the
Digital Revolution Awards website on June 13th.
