ABOUT THE AWARDS

The Middle East Technology Excellence Awards, aims to recognise exceptional companies that have made noteworthy strides in the realm of technological innovation.

Unlike the previous edition, where companies were recognized on a regional scale, the awards structure has been revamped. In the current format, companies will be acknowledged individually within each country. This adjustment ensures a more focused and tailored approach, spotlighting and celebrating outstanding contributions at the national level.

 

GUIDELINES

• Nominations will be deliberated by a judging committee based on write-ups and supporting documents received.
