BUSINESS LEADER VIPS Introducing the GO:TECH AWARDS 2020 The Go:Tech Awards by Business Leader were first launched in 2018 to provide a vehicle for the technology-led businesses of all sizes to celebrate their pioneering work. To do this we teamed up with university and business incubators, tech influencers and investors to create an awards that showcased not only ideas and concepts but also the entrepreneurs and leaders that have spotted a gap in the market and built a commercially successful business. Sponsoring the event aligns your brand with this excellence in technology and this guide will walk you through all the features and benefits you will receive as a sponsor and showcase the event highlights.
