Final deadline for all entries is August 29th

LONDON, UK – July 28th 2014 – The Tech Trailblazers Awards early bird rates close at midnight Pacific time this Thursday, leaving enterprise tech startups with just a few days to make savings on their awards submissions fee. The discounted rate 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 equivalent prize fund up for grabs, a comprehensive promotion campaign by the organizers, plus judging and mentoring from the crème de la crème of the VC and technology industry, the early-bird deadline means even better ROI for entrants.

The Tech Trailblazers Awards celebrate and reward innovation in the following areas: big data, cloud, emerging markets (supporting enterprise tech startups from emerging markets such as the BRICS region), Internet of Things (#IoT), mobile technology, networking, IT security, data storage, sustainable IT and virtualization.

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.
