Dear Readers,
One of the best things in our annual calendar is announcing the shortlist of the OpenUK Awards – 33 amazing enterprises, projects and people. Find out more below. The nominees are all now invited to attend the Oscars of Open Source – the gala dinner and awards ceremony at the House of Lords when the winners will be announced. Wishing all of the nominees the best of luck!
And to those who were nominated and didn’t make the shortlist- well done! You are doing a fabulous job and we hope you’ll try again next year.
