The ÍæÅ¼½ã½ã 100 returns for 2023 to showcase and celebrate the top 100 ÍæÅ¼½ã½ãs and their teams across the UK.


The Official ÍæÅ¼½ã½ã 100 Awards UK acknowledges the best and brightest ÍæÅ¼½ã½ãs and technology leaders in the UK, celebrating their digital transformation achievements, and reflecting on themes and ideas which emerged from submissions.

The awards are open exclusively to IT leaders in the UK, with winners receiving an invitation to the live awards to celebrate peers, announcements as a 2022 winner via ÍæÅ¼½ã½ã marketing channels, as well as further exposure of their success through ÍæÅ¼½ã½ã.com.

This year the ÍæÅ¼½ã½ã 100 Awards will be co-located with the , the annual thought leadership event held by ÍæÅ¼½ã½ã UK. The event will be held at the Leonardo Royal Hotel St Paul’s.

The winner of the 2022 ÍæÅ¼½ã½ã 100 was Joanna Drake, ÍæÅ¼½ã½ã of THG. In her interview with ÍæÅ¼½ã½ã.COM, she shared: “If this was about me, as an individual, I’d struggle to do a [ÍæÅ¼½ã½ã 100] submission, so it’s about the team and I’m blessed and honoured to work with some amazing people every day, with so much grit, determination and creativity”. She also added it was an opportunity to stop and reflect on how far they’ve come in a year, and how she fell into IT after a career in tennis failed to materialise, first starting in a help desk support before progressing into service management and engineering positions.
