The 4th edition of the prestigious ICT Champion Integrator Awards ceremony, held at the spectacular St.Regis hotel on the 18th of May applauded the best performing vendors, distributors and system integrators of the year.

These awards are the most comprehensive in the region in terms of recognitions across different ICT technology solution segments. They are also the only one focused on the value add ICT segment. The awards survey was hosted online and saw a significant rise in number of votes from the SI database across the region vis-a-vis past years. The winners were decided on the maximum votes polled in each category by participating nominees. A modest weightage was also given to the nomination write-ups submitted at the time of nominations.

There were also a few Editor’s choice awards that decided select recognitions based on market intelligence available to the editorial team.

The Awards are held by The Integrator magazine, the unrivalled leader in channel publications catering to the value add ICT segment and which is published by JNS Media International MFZE. The Integrator Awards come under the broader banner of the ICT Champion Awards initiative that include the highly popular VAR COC (Choice of Channel Awards) that have concluded 10 editions to date.

Mr. Vivek Sharma, CEO of JNS Media International and publisher of The Integrator said, “The Integrator ICT Champion Awards follow a comprehensive methodology in helping recognize the best performances over the past year. It is heartening to see that the ICT value Business is continuing to show resilience and growth, which these awards applaud.”

One of the highlights of the evening’s gala event also included a brilliant but brief sketching session by a gifted young artist from Zambia that was much appreciated by attendees. Mr. Victor, the artist dealt with his handicap of losing his power of hearing at the tender age of three and has discovered his talents with the paintbrush. The organizers of the Awards are also thankful to Mr. Jude Pereira, Managing Director, Nanjgel Solutions who announced his willingness to sponsor the further education of Mr. Victor in a wonderful and spontaneous gesture.
