The finalists for the Digital Economy Award 2023
In the digital sector, the Swiss economy offers high quality and diversity and takes care of the aspect of sustainability. The Digital Economy Award is organized by the ICT trade association swissICT. It was created in 2018 through a merger of the Swiss ICT Award and the Swiss Digital Transformation Award.
The juries have selected the finalists for the Digital Economy Award 2023 from a large number of submissions. A total of 15 organizations and 14 individuals are in the running for an award in the various categories. Among them, ten personalities are also up for selection for "The Pascal," a public vote. Only the finalists for the ICT Education Excellence award will not be announced until the end of October.
With the announcement of the finalists at the Digital Festival, the majority of individuals, companies and institutions have now been determined who will have the chance to win an award at the Digital Economy Awards ceremony on November 16 at the Hallenstadion. The various prominent juries were impressed by the innovative strength of the projects presented, the digital maturity of the companies and the skills of the personalities. Christian Hunziker, Managing Director at swissICT and responsible for the jury process for the Digital Economy Award, adds: "In addition to the quality of the entries, the aspect of digital sustainability, a new criterion this year, was also judged very positively."
