Women in Tech Employer Awards finalists announced!

The Women in Tech Employer Awards are back for 2023, and the evening is set to be bigger & better than last year. Taking place in a brand new venue in central London, the Women in Tech Employer Awards is an evening to remember, remarking & celebrating the achievements of companies and individuals who are helping to close the gender gap in technology.

After the eight judges had spent weeks reviewing and scoring the entries, last week the long-awaited announcement of who had made the finalist list was released. 100 companies and individuals were shortlisted across 19 categories including Best Tech Employer (of various sized companies), Best Employer for Parental Support, Outstanding Woman in Tech and Best Mentorship Programme.

Last year’s awards evening took place in the Montcalm hotel in Marble Arch in May, with over 300 people attending to find out the winners of the awards. Amongst the winners were CGI, Intent HQ, HMRC and Allianz. The winners were awarded trophies by sponsors of the event as well as the host for the evening, award-winning comedian and writer Sindhu Vee.

This year, due to selling-out the previous venue, the awards are taking place in the Nine Kings Suite in the Royal Lancaster Hotel in London. If you’d like to be there, it’s not too late – tickets are on sale now. You can purchase individual tickets or a table by visiting the awards website.
