Each year, SoftwareCEO/CompTIA forms a select panel of industry experts
to evaluate the nominations, and determine finalists and Software Innovation
Award winners. These industry experts, are analysts, consultants,
writers and trade press,
and subject-matter experts. Judges must submit an application which
is reviewed for experience and expertise.
If you are interested in being a judge, please submit your resume and
what categories you would like to judge to Dave
Sommer.
Judges are recognized on the SoftwareCEO Web site and at the Breakaway
Gala Awards Evening.
Two levels of judging are performed. The judges, during the
first level of judging, use the information given on the nomination
form and apply
the Award Criteria to determine finalists. Every
nomination is thoroughly reviewed. Selected review of Web sites and
other industry information may be performed during this level of judging.
The first level of judging is completed in April and May, and the
finalists
are notified by May 31.
After the finalists are determined, the second level of judging
takes place, and is based on supplemental materials (demos, etc.) submitted
by the nominees. Winners are determined from a composite of the first
and second levels
of judging. Winners are announced at the Breakaway Gala Awards Evening.
SoftwareCEO encourages the udges to provide comments on the
nominations. Our goal is to make the judging process as transparent
as possible.
SoftwareCEO will provide nominees with all constructive comments
made by the judges. After the finalists have been announced in June,
nominees may request judge
feedback by contacting Dave Sommer at DSommer@SoftwareCEO.com.
