The BBC have advertised the women in technology awards. Who would you like to win them? Who do you see as the best of the best?
The categories are as follows:
AWARD CATEGORIES
1 - Best woman in technology in the private sector
2 - Best woman in technology in the public sector
3 - Best woman in technology in a small to medium enterprise
4 - Best woman in technology in academia
5 - Best female mentor and in technology
6 - Best female technology writer
7 - Best technology company advancing women
8 - 2005 Woman and Technology Award
These people need to be people who are futuristic, motivators and people that the younger generation can look up to and aspire to. It will be interesting to see the results of this one.
You can put your application in at the
women in technology website. The closing date for entries is the 29th July so get in there quick. I have to say it really hasn’t been marketed all that well and they do need to get a lot more exposure in order to get the high calibre applicants that they are looking for.
So should I apply? Personally I don’t think I am quite up there yet. I could have done it last year when I was a student… but now I am working it just doesn’t seem to be all that appropriate.
And don't forget about the
female Geek dinner on the 16th August.
