Digital Transformation Awards to be held in November

NAIROBI, Kenya, OCT 11 – Organizations using information technology (IT) to deliver business value will be recognize at this year’s Africa Digital Transformation Awards in Diani, Kilifi County.

Formerly known as the CIO100 Awards, dx100 is set to take place in Diani, Kwale County from the November 23-25th, 2022. The awards and symposium will bring together big players in the African tech space, from all around the continent.

Organized by dx5, the event will award different members of the C-suite based on their contribution towards the digital transformation journeys of their respective organizations.

The biggest award at the event will be the dx100 CIO of the Year, because the Chief Information Officer (CIO) is at the centre of digital transformation in any company.

During last year’s CIO100 Awards, Tom Mboya, the CIO at Unga Group Holdings carried the day taking home the biggest award of the night.

Other awards will include the dx100 CISO (Chief Information Security Officer) of the Year, dx100 CXO (Chief Experience Officer), Digital Influencer of the Year, DX100 Green Edge Award, among others.

It will be a long but fair process to determine the winners. After an initial review by the dx100 team, applications are evaluated and scored by four regional external judges chosen from our panel of more than 20 judges (including industry experts, academics, business executives, and former CIOs).

Dx5’s Chairman and Publisher, Harry Hare, has expressed his excitement in hosting the first ever award ceremony that will fete companies and individuals for their contribution to digital transformation.

“We are excited to be hosting the first ever digital transformation awards in the continent, recognizing the efforts that the CIO and her C-suite colleagues have used technology to transform their organisations, modernized their business models and made their businesses more resilient to shocks such as the pandemic,” Harry Hare noted.
