BCX Digital Innovation Awards 2022 Announces Top 6 Finalists @BCXworld #BCXDIA #digitalinnovationawards

Hi Friends, 

Digital transformation in business has proven to be a driver of socio-economic growth globally. BCX believes that businesses can Invent, Evolve and Unite through digital innovation while creating greater opportunities for growth in South Africa. The BCX Digital Innovation Award (DIA) was first introduced in 2019 to celebrate Small and Medium Enterprise’s (SME’s), and large enterprises who have achieved digital innovation excellence having created solutions that have moved their industries forward and have impacted our society.

"The DIA is in its 4th year, and we have truly seen the creativity and innovation of our local companies over this time. But, more than this, we have seen the commitment of these companies to make a difference to the environments around them by adopting digital innovation", say Mandisa Ntloko-Petersen, BCX Chief Marketing Officer.

Through the DIA, BCX recognises and nurtures digital innovation excellence amongst South African companies, providing them with opportunities to grow further. Today, BCX proudly announces the top six finalists for this year's prestigious Digital Innovation Awards 2022. This year’s BCX Digital Innovation Awards received 42 entries.
