Dear Colleagues CIO East Africa and PriceWaterhouseCoopers(PwC) have commenced the CIO100 2014 survey leading to the 4th annual CIO-PwC CIO100 Awards. This award celebrates 100 organizations (and the people within them) that are using IT in innovative ways to deliver business value, whether by creating competitive advantage, optimizing business processes, enabling growth or improving relationships with customers. Perhaps you took a risk on an emerging technology or deployed the tried-and-true in a new way. Maybe you built a better business process or fostered closer collaboration. Or maybe you found ways to get more from existing customers, to pursue new markets, to save money or to make more. Here¹s your chance to tell your peers about the technology innovations that have enabled or led the way to greater success for your organisation. To be selected, applicants must show not only that they have executed their project well but also that they have done so in uncommon, innovative ways: pioneering a new technology, applying a familiar technology to a new purpose, setting the bar higher for their competitors. And they must demonstrate business value, not just IT benefits. If interested in taking this survey, please visit http://bit.ly/1rMAleN <http://bit.ly/1rMAleN> The Honorees will be announced in October 2014 and the Symposium and Awards Ceremony is scheduled for 13-14 November at the Enashipai Resort and Spa.
