NC TECH, in partnership with Business North Carolina, has launched the NEXT TECH Awards to showcase and celebrate North Carolina’s rising tech stars. This reception will also serve as the kick-off to this year’s State of Tech EXPONENTIAL Conference.

This year’s inaugural class of winners will be selected from applications submitted from across the state recognizing individuals who go the extra mile, build products, grow revenue, support operations, and manage projects that propel businesses forward.  What all these individuals have in common is their exceptional business impacts, positive energy and attitude, and community engagement. Honorees will be featured in the June edition of Business North Carolina Magazine.
