Every year, one highlight of InterSystems annual developers conference (DEVCON) is the presentation of the InterSystems Innovator Awards. The Innovator Awards honor the creativity and remarkable abilities of IT professionals who use InterSystems’ technology.
If your solution is chosen, you and your company will be recognized at DEVCON2010, and receive a cash award! Winning solutions will be featured on Intersystems Web site, and in a press release sent to media outlets worldwide.
The InterSystems Innovator Awards, along with the Caché Student Innovator Award, will be presented at DEVCON2010 (March 21st through 24th in Orlando, Florida).
Eligibility:
To be eligible, a solution must have been created within the past three years, and deployed at one or more sites, using Caché, Ensemble, and/or DeepSee. If you have solutions that you submitted in previous years, and if they did not win awards, they are eligible for resubmission – but you must send new submission documents.
Judging:
An independent panel of IT industry experts will judge entries based upon their creativity and innovative use of InterSystems’ technologies. The panel will be headed by Bill Laberis, a vice president at Computerworld magazine, who will also serve as emcee of the Innovator Award presentation. InterSystems personnel are not involved in the judging process.
Prizes:
First-, second-, and third-place winning solutions will be chosen, and the companies that developed them will receive cash awards of $10,000, $4,000, and $2,000 respectively (in U.S. currency.) The winning companies will also be given a plaque, and the first-place winner will receive a trophy.
Profiles of the winning solutions will be featured on our Web site, and in a press release sent to industry media outlets around the world.
