The team here at BookIt are stoked to have been named as a finalist in the IRL Emerging Company category of the PricewaterhouseCoopers New Zealand Hi-Tech Awards. The finalists were announced last night at simultaneous functions held in Auckland and Christchurch. Kirstin and I attended the Christchurch event and had an excellent night meeting a number of the sponsors, organisers, judges and fellow entrants.
The PwC NZ Hi-Tech Awards is dedicated to recognising excellence and success and is the only Awards programme to fully focus on New Zealand's software, electronics, biotechnology, telecommunications and creative technology industries. This year's awards saw a record number of entries, 160 in total. Winners of the awards in each category will be announced at a black-tie, Gala event to be held in Christchurch on the 1st of May.
Until then, we'll keep on emerging!
