The Nominet Internet Awards
A panel of judges are due to select the winners, which will be announced at an awards ceremony on Thursday, July 4 at The British Library, hosted by technology journalist Kate Russell
David Ransom, Director of the Business Crime Reduction Centre says: “We are delighted to have been shortlisted for such a prestigious award. The calibre of the other initiatives shortlisted demonstrates the high standard in this year’s awards. The Business Crime Reduction Centre has worked hard over the past year to reduce the impact cybercrime has on small businesses in the Yorkshire and Humber region and it is pleasing to have that hard work acknowledged.”
Lesley Cowley, CEO of Nominet, says: “Once again the Nominet Internet Awards nominees represent the diversity of online innovation found in the UK. From online safety and awareness through to innovative new public services, the last 12 months has seen a number of strides across a wide range of sectors focussed on making the internet an even greater source of economic and social good for all. In an environment where the internet doesn’t always get good press, the awards have uncovered some shining examples of the positive impact the internet is having around the UK.”
