The Jersey Tech Award will be celebrating their fifth year showcasing the island's growing digital sector with a brand-new innovation category.
Nominations are now open ahead of the awards presentation in April.
A new category, the Innovation Award, aims to celebrate a technological solution which has solved a problem or acts as a market disruptor.
Amendments will also be made to the ESG (Environment Social Governance) Award to allow broader requirements.
It will be aimed at organisations or teams that have used technology to make a significant positive impact on environment, social or governance issues.
Kelly Barker, Digital Jersey Head of Marketing and Communications, says the event is growing in size and popularity in line with expansion in the sector:
"It has been so rewarding to see the growth of the Jersey Tech Awards. Not only are we expanding our categories, but we are having to move to a venue with 550 capacity after a packed event last year.
This is testament to the increasing importance of the digital sector in our island, and the wealth of innovation and skills within it.
We’re looking forward to being able to celebrate our brightest and best at the fifth annual awards in April."
