Interact and Techbuyer are CRN Tech Impact Awards finalists

It has been a thrilling month for awards; following finding out that Techbuyer is one of the finalists for Global SME at the Global Good Awards, the news broke that both Techbuyer and Interact have come away with some major wins at the IT World Awards. So, you can imagine our excitement when we found out that both Techbuyer and Interact have been shortlisted for the first CRN Tech Impact Awards.

The CRN Tech Impact Awards have been launched new for 2021, and are designed to celebrate vendors championing environmental and social sustainability. With recent CRN research showing that sustainability alone is one of the top-three considerations for over 50% of decisions-makers in UK IT, this growing awareness of social responsibility, alongside new regulations, has resulted in it being a better time than ever to start highlighting sustainable tech providers to their immensely large audience.

Over the coming months in the lead-up to the event, the CRN Tech Impact Campaign will also highlight innovation and best practice within the industry as it responds to an increasing demand.
