With just 3 days to go until the much anticipated and now sold out SPARKies tech and digital awards 2017, an app to celebrate the amazing shortlisted companies, organisations, projects and people – along with each award’s fantastic sponsors, judges and organisers – has been released.
The SPARKies app, which can be downloaded for free both in the Google Play store and the iTunes store, was designed and built by local mobile development experts Daniel Leivers, Dave Allen and Jake Chandrasakera – who was also the winner of the SPARKies FutureSPARK award in 2014 (pictured in the app screenshot, right).
Meet the winners
Gone are the days when – confronted with an award winner or shortlisted company, you’ll struggle to find their website or LinkedIn page. With the SPARKies app you can read about all the shortlisted companies, projects and people on the app and click straight through to their websites to find out more.
Of course, if you’re unlucky enough to not have grabbed yourself a ticket in time or can’t make it along but have this innovative little app, you’ll receive live push notifications on the night of the awards – Thursday 29 June – revealing all the winners!
You can download the SPARKies app on the iTunes app store for iPhone or the Google Play store for Android. You can also find out more about the awards on the SPARKies website. To stay tuned on social media, follow us on Twitter here: @TechSPARKuk or use the hashtag #theSPARKies.
