Amazon, Microsoft, Expedia, T-Mobile, Zillow, Redfin, Smartsheet, Avalara. The list of tech giants from the Pacific Northwest continues to grow — who will be the next to join this elite club?
The Next Tech Titan finalists at the GeekWire Awards this year — Ally.io; Highspot; Icertis; Remitly; and Zenoti — are all poised to be the next dominant force in the PNW tech ecosystem. Past winners include Rover, Convoy, BitTitan, Smartsheet, and Outreach, which won last year.
Community voting is now underway across 13 GeekWire Awards categories in our 13th annual celebration of Pacific Northwest tech. That voting, which closes on April 30, will be factored in with feedback from more than 20 judges. On May 20 we will announce the winners live at the virtual GeekWire Awards, presented by Wave Business.
