The Judges Award 2013
With an extended panel of expert Judges, the 2013 categories, including new Awards, are designed to reflect changes in markets and technologies, but retain a focus on recognising excellence across the datacentre and cloud sector. Changes in the sector also imply that the Awards become open to international companies.
