NEW YORK, Sept. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Judges from tech-industry awards program The Cloud Awards, currently celebrating its tenth anniversary, are looking for an "innovator of the decade" in this year's honors.

James Williams, Cloud Awards Head of Operations, said: "After a successful and highly-subscribed year for our sister program the SaaS Awards, we also have lots of new categories to enter for the Cloud Awards, which closes in October.

"These range from 'Best Place to Work in the Cloud,' to 'Best Cloud-Native Project or Solution.' The jewel in the crown for any organization is our 'Cloud Innovator of the Decade' award – however, we can only judge the applications which land on our desk!"

Lead judge Richard Geary said: "Cloud technologies have continued to evolve over the past decade, so we're eager to identify the organization which has most adapted and moved with the times, continuing to innovate and provide value to its customers."

The Cloud Awards team was also joined last year by volunteer judge Neha Pattan, a senior staff software engineer at Google and SaaS veteran managing a team of over 40 software engineers. Neha is looking to identify "cutting-edge innovations."

Prospective participants are encouraged to submit their applications to the Cloud Awards program ahead of the deadline: October 22, 2021.
