Does Optoro or Deloitte Digital have a better work culture? Or what about SkyBitz?
If you’ve got a strong opinion on this, or loyalties one way or another, then you’re in luck — it’s open voting season for Tech in Motion’s second annual D.C. Timmy Awards.
As with last year, the Timmy Awards honor three precise categories:
- best technology manager
- best technology work culture
- best tech startup
Nominations are in for this year’s awards, and now it is time for the public to vote on a deserving startup (or manager, as the case may be) for each category.
