PCR Tech and IT retail, distribution and vendor news
The PC Retail Awards 2009 are just four months away – and time is running out to nominate those who you believe deserve to be recognised for their efforts and success.
The Awards, which will be held at the Royal Garden Hotel in Kensington on Thursday March 19th, will acknowledge the hard work of the UK computing and IT channel.
The finalists for each award will be decided by the PC Retail team, but will be influenced by suggestions from you. Once the list of finalists are decided, the winners will be chosen by a panel of 75 independent judges.
The lobbying process ends tomorrow (Wednesday November 26th), so be sure to send your suggestions to Lisa.Foster@intentmedia.co.uk now. There’s no need for lengthy submissions or powerpoint presentations – just send an email, telling us why we should consider a particular team or business.
