**We are still seeking nominations - nominate someone from your community today!**

Since 2000, NCW Tech Alliance has recognized over 75 local innovators through the Innovator Awards Luncheon, an event where over 350 leaders in business and education come together to celebrate entrepreneurship, technology, and education. Awards in five different categories will be presented during the luncheon. Winners are selected from all nominations by an independent selection committee.

The Innovator Awards Luncheon celebrates the drive, passion, and spirit of innovators in our community while inspiring those who are just starting their journey. When talking about game changers in technology or business, people often look at Seattle entrepreneurs and companies for inspiration. But world-class innovation and development is happening right here in NCW. It is important for us to shine a light on those in our community - our neighbors, family, and friends - who are excelling in their industries, championing growth for our community, and paving the path for the next generation.

There are 5 categories to nominate in:

Entrepreneur of the Year
Entrepreneurs are people with vision and the ability to see a need and fill it. They have the courage to make a change and the stamina to await results. This individual will have displayed exceptional vision, leadership, and innovation in building a new company, developing a new product or service, or have creatively developed a way to deliver an existing product or service to the marketplace.

Newcomer In Technology
Successful companies are those that aren't afraid of change and face technology innovation head-on. A Newcomer In Technology nominee is an organization, company, or department that has embraced technology to transform the work environment. These nominees should be using or creating technology in ways that advance production, improve efficiency, or differentiate their product or service for a competitive advantage.

STEM Champion of the Year
This award aims to recognize educators and community members who are pursuing innovative approaches to learning through STEM experiences. The winner will demonstrate a passion for STEM education and will be seen by their peers and community as advocates for promoting STEM pathways for students.

STEM College Student Innovator of the Year
Post-secondary students will be recognized for innovative projects that address real-world problems. Student-led projects are preferred but teacher-led initiatives will be considered if the student project is innovative and unique. The student(s) must demonstrate critical thinking, creativity, innovation, and problem-solving. Any construction, data logging, and summarizing must have been completed by the student(s). The winner will demonstrate potential for success through leadership and learning.

(K-12) Future Technology Leader of the Year
K-12 students will be recognized for innovative projects in technology. The project does not have to be exclusive to technology - but technology should play a dominant role. Student-led projects are preferred but teacher-led initiatives will be considered if the technology project is innovative, unique, and the student(s) participated in a hands-on, experiential manner. The winner will demonstrate potential for success through leadership, learning, and technology skills.
