The theme of this year’s event is “Faster, Higher, Stronger,” inspired by the Olympic Games taking place in Paris this summer.
Eighteen Computable experts digitally assessed 29 nominations in this category, forming the basis for the main jury’s decisions. The jury, consisting of Stijn Grove, Ruud Mulder, Reza Sarshar, Fred Streefland, Richard Turk, Anouk Vos, and Jasper Wognum, evaluated the nominations on four criteria: the reason for the project, its achievements, the role of digitalization, and its impact on the organization. These criteria were weighted at 17%, 33%, 29%, and 21%, respectively.
The ten nominees are:
- Sustainable entrepreneurship (Drake & Farrell)
- Free IT training for status holders (Young_Coders)
- Carbon-neutral HPC hosting infrastructure (Responsible Compute and Lenovo)
- New sustainability strategy (Refurbed)
- Making new phones and laptops waste-neutral (Closing the Loop and Ilionx)
- Okta for Good Fund
- Program ROBUST (led by ICAI)
- Seeds for the Future Training Program (Huawei)
- Steward ownership (Voys)
- Tactile maps (Cadastre, Dedicon Foundation, Accessibility Foundation, and Esri Netherlands)
Public voting for the Computable Awards 2024 will start on July 1, with the public vote accounting for 50% of the final decision. The remaining 50% will come from the jury’s evaluation.
