There are 11 award categories looking to acknowledge leadership, entrepreneurship, innovation, community impact, and talent:
- Leader of the Year (CIO, CTO, CISO)
- Tech Entrepreneur
- Top Tech Innovator
- Tech for Good
- IT Business Development Executive
- Rising Star in Security
- Rising Star in Cloud
- Rising Star in Coding
- Top Tech Student

The judging panel, including Wired4Women board members, Telkom executives, ITWeb editors and other senior industry representatives, will determine the winners. The finalists will be revealed at the end of April and the announcement of the winners will take place at a gala Wired4Women event in Sandton, Johannesburg, on 22 May.
Nominations close at midnight on Sunday, 24 March!
