Nominations Open For Women In Tech Awards

Nominations are now being accepted for TVNewsCheck’s 2018 Women in Technology Awards.

Each year at the NAB Show, the Women in Technology Awards are presented in two categories.

The Women in Technology Leadership Award recognizes women who have contributed significantly toward advancing their industry technologically.

The Technology Women to Watch Awards shine a spotlight on women in media and entertainment who show significant promise of advancing their industry.

Both awards support the National Association of Broadcasters Education Foundation’s Technology Apprenticeship Program, which places graduating engineers who are women or people of color in broadcast industry internships. The program has helped scores participants to find industry jobs.
