Last year, we introduced the inaugural Delaware Innovation Awards at Delaware Innovation Week. Well, we just had them again this year, so that makes it an annual thing now (you’re stuck with us now, Delaware. Sorry not sorry.)
We shared the list of nominees that you, our readers, so graciously voted on. It was a star-studded guestlist at the Delaware Innovation Awards with all of our nominees in the house at Friday’s celebration hosted by 1313 Innovation.
