Here are also a few tips from some of our judges on writing a ‘winning submission’:

  • Address the category criteria and points that the judges are specifically looking for
  • Highlight the individual and/or the issue; state what was put in place to solve the/an issue; how is success being measured; what was the result; how long has the work and/or initiative has been running; what is the reach; what has been the feedback
  • Focus on the deliverables rather than accolades
  • Be as factual and concise where possible
  • Include additional URLs that support the submission and the criteria requirements

 

By nominating yourself or others, you will get access to the following benefits:

  1. Free ticket to award ceremony & dinner
  2. Social Media Spotlight reaching over 1M+ audience
  3. Invitation to Cloud Leader Circle
  4. Expedited access to secure warm introductions in our network

 

Women in Cloud would like to hear from you! Submit your nominations by completing the award nomination application by June 30, 2021. Those chosen will be honored at an Award Ceremony on July 14th during the #WICxInspire event.
