Join us for the 2020 Elevate Awards, presented by HireNetworks. This is an opportunity to recognize the best technology and sales talent in the Triangle. We’re counting on you to find the best of the best. Take a moment to nominate a local salesperson or developer in one of four categories – that teammate, partner, friend, the trusted leader you count on to deliver excellence every time. Nominations will be judged by a panel of local executives, and the winners announced during an award reception in the Fall. Details about the award reception will be announced in the Fall.
