Who doesn’t love an awards ceremony? On went the posh frocks and black ties and off went Equal Experts to the UK IT Industry Awards 2017 to join the great and good of Britain’s IT industry.

It was a fantastic evening beneath a canopy of lights, but we weren’t just there for the glitz: we’d been shortlisted for four awards.

For us as a business, we were up for Best Place to Work in IT and the UK Innovation & Entrepreneurship Award for our joint venture with UXForms. And for our client work, we were shortlisted for Workplace Transformation with Co-op Funeralcare, and Digital Project of the Year with Informa.

As is always the case, the field was strong and the competition tough, which is why we were delighted to be ‘Highly Commended’ twice – once for our work with Co-op Funeralcare, and a second time for our work with Informa.

A huge ‘well done’ goes to both teams for all their hard work – it’s well deserved. We were also proud to be shortlisted as being a great place to work – it’s something we work hard at – and for our work with UXForms.

While we’re at it, HMRC, another of our clients, deserves a shout-out for winning three awards and one ‘Highly Commended’ of its own. We love a happy client, so good work to everyone at HMRC!

Much fun was had by all, so thanks to the organisers and to the judges – and congratulations to all the winners.
