Rose Ross, Chief Trailblazer and Founder of The Tech Trailblazers Awards said; “Congratulations to our 2022 Tech Trailblazers! I am delighted that every year sees more and more entrants from around the world competing to win a Tech Trailblazers Award. We have also seen a marked increase in Female CxOs entrants which is very satisfying. We will continue to work on spotlighting these trailblazers in 2023.

This is our 11th edition which gives us over a decade to look back and see how our winners have benefitted from the exposure and credibility that an award from industry judges can bring. There have been many amazing entries again this year, truly earning their place in the Tech Trailblazers hall of fame! We’ll be keeping a keen eye on how these innovations continue to blaze a trail in 2023, and I eagerly await the #FoundersonFire podcast discussions with the winners soon!”

Shortlists for each category are chosen by the panel of leading IT industry experts, and winners are identified by a combination of judging panel opinions and a public vote. Winners of the regional Hopper (Americas), Kesavan (Asia Pacific) and Turing (EMEA) awards have been determined by the highest number of public votes in each region.

Ross concluded: “The regional cups are very important as it ensures startups from all continents get recognition. We do still see the majority of the entrants from the US, which is not to be unexpected, but for 2023 we will be launching a number of initiatives with partners to encourage more startups from Europe, Africa and the APAC regions to put their hat in the ring.”
