Cathedral Appointments are very proud to sponsor the 2020 Tech South West Awards celebrating the achievements of local businesses.

 

This year, we are supporting the new Hero Award category which recognises those who have shown incredible innovation, solutions, and support in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. 

 

These individuals, community organisations, and businesses have helped make a difference using technology. They were able to put people first, pivot their product or service in times of need, and develop new solutions to some of the challenges faced during this year. 

 

Nominees for the award include some of the West Country's most innovative tech firms. 

 

What are the Tech South West Awards?

Each year, the Tech South West Awards celebrates the best ‘tech in the west’. Honourees include businesses and organisations operating in Bath, Bristol, Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly, Devon, Dorset, Gloucestershire, Somerset and Wiltshire.

 

Toby Parkins, Chairman of Tech South West, said: “In a tough year it is humbling and inspiring to witness the exceptional array of technology talent we have in the South West.

 

“Brilliant individuals and organisations are making waves within our region and on a global scale. A huge thank you to the tech community, our partners, sponsors, judges and of course this year’s entrants who have made the awards possible this year. This collective effort is credit to the supportive and collaborative technology community we have in the region.”
