The 6th Editon of Express I.T. Awards took shape of a gala awards ceremony on 5th of December this year, recognizing companies who are at the cutting edge of technology innovation, as well as leading professionals across the I.T. industry.
An initiative of the business publication Financial Express, every year the Awards aim to discover, recognize and reward I.T. solutions that have been leveraged to drive value addition in business.
Selection Process: From Five Hundred to Fifteen
The Awards saw about 500 applications this year across the 9 categories – IT Innovation-Large Enterprises, IT Innovation-MSME, Mobility Solutions, Cloud Solutions, Startup of the Year, Analytics Solutions, Fintech Solutions, Software Product and Digital Solutions.
Evaluation process was led by the Financial Express editorial team, along with their knowledge partner PwC. Adjudged by a jury team of globally recognized innovators.

The team looked at how novel and exclusive an idea was. “In categories such as analytics, for instance, they believed it was important to also gauge how easily the product or service could be deployed. The jury also went into how the service is performing currently and tried to assess whether it has a future. How would it evolve in the next four or five years? Would the base product stay strong enough and evolve in the manner needed? After all, any product or service must be amenable to continuous improvements.” (Source – FE Bureau)
