So we tried a little something in Philadelphia and it worked really well and now we’re bringing it to Charm City.
It’s the NET/WORK Awards — a not-so-serious hugely important competition crowning the best people in the Baltimore tech community.
As you may recall, Technical.ly’s annual not-sucky jobs fair is coming up soon (Thursday, Feb. 23, see you there) and we like having fun. And really, there’s no better time to crown someone “Least Worst Recruiter” than when a bunch of hiring companies and job seekers are together in one big room. Good times.
Now, we’re currently at Step 1: nominate some folks. Here are the categories:
- Best Meetup Organizer of the Year
- Best Baltimore Tech Twitter Account
- Best Coworking Community Manager
- Least Worst Recruiter
- Best CTO
- Best Game Developer
- Best Slack Channel
- Best Office Pet
- Best Office Snack Shelf
Are you ready to rumble?

We have some nominees in mind already, but we want to get ideas from you before we put this out for online voting. Now is your chance. You have until Friday, Feb. 17 to submit your ideas. Nominees will be announced Monday. Winners will be announced at the event. Go team.
