I'm a board member of Open UK - which promotes UK leadership in open technology - and we're looking for nominations for our Open Source Awards.
These are designed to honour the individuals and projects which have made a positive impact to open source, open data, and open hardware.
You can nominate at openuk.uk/nominations/
There are five categories available:
- 👶 Young Person
- 👩 Individual
- 📊 Open Data – company, organisation or project
- 🖥 Open Hardware – company, organisation or project
- 💻 Open Source Software – company, organisation or project
We don't want to see the usual suspects again and again. Who do you love? Who isn't usually nominated for these sorts of awards? Who deserves a round of applause?
And, yes, you should absolutely nominate yourself. Self-promotion of amazing open tech people & projects is highly encouraged.
