The SPARKies season is officially upon us since nominations for our 17 awards opened last month. That may have felt like a moment ago, but time flies and there is now only ONE WEEK left to submit your entry – so get nominating

We’re calling on the community to help us make this the best SPARKies yet. We know the bar is high for talent in our region, and we want to offer some recognition to the organisations and individulas who are making a real impact on the South West tech cluster. 

So, nominate yourself for that outstanding piece of digital design, put forward a young person already making big waves in the tech industry, or that startup you’ve been really impressed by in the past year. We want to hear your opinion – you have until 18 May to have your say.

This year’s get together will once again be a summer fiesta, taking place on Thursday 13 July. The SPARKies 2023 will be an extra special occasion for another reason. As we’re curating the Bath Digital Festival this year, we thought it would be fitting to host the party during the festival. In case you hadn’t guessed – The SPARKies 2023 will also be returning to it’s home in the historic city of Bath.

Some of you will be well accustomed to The SPARKies celebrations. This year we will be bringing you the signature casual awards show with a selection of food, drink and various activities, included in your ticket. We can’t wait to bring you a fun filled evening in true SPARKies style.

Make sure to secure yourself a spot at the party by grabbing a ticket today!

Who will be the SPARKies 2023 winners? 

Plus the People’s Choice where you tell us who you think the best tech company in the South West is. The ultimate winner will be chosen by the SPARKies audience on the night!

All of this will be made possible by our amazing The SPARKies 2023 sponsors. If you’re interesting in supporting the event, you can have a chat with one of our lovely Parternships Team members here.
