Q. What does it cost to enter the Green IT
Awards?
A. There is no charge to enter the Awards.
Q. How many Companies can I nominate? A. You can nominate as many Companies as
you wish.
Q. Can I nominate a company in more than 1
category?
A. Yes, as long as it’s relevant you can
nominate a company in as many categories as you wish.
Q. How are the Finalists drawn up?
A. In the Public voting categories the
companies with the most nominations in each category will go through to the
finals. In the Project categories the panel will select the finalists from the
entries submitted.
Q. How many companies can I vote for?
A. You can vote for 1 company in each
category. You can only vote once, multiple votes will be recorded so we can
identify any abuses but they will not be counted. Votes must come from a valid
business email, not a free email such as hotmail, gmail etc. This is to stop multiple voting. If multiple voting abuses occur we
reserve the right to disqualify any company(s) that may have benefited from
those votes.
Q. Why do you record my email and IP
Addresses?
A. These are just part of the measures we
have in place to ensure voting is fair and to strip out multiple voting.
Q. Do you add my email address to a
database you later market to?
A. No, your email address is recorded for
vote verification only, you will never receive any form of sales/marketing
communication from us and we NEVER pass your data to a 3rd party.
Q. Do you confirm my vote/nomination has
been recorded?
A. Yes, as part of our verification each
vote cast generates an automatic email reply detailing what companies were
voted for. If that email fails/bounces back the vote is disregarded. If you do
not receive a confirmation email from us, please call us. This is the only
email you will ever receive from us.
Q. I want to enter a project category, what
should I do?
A. Project entries should be sent in PDF
format, be of no more than 1500 words and up to 3 images and be clearly marked
with the Category you wish to enter, the name of all companies involved and a
contact person the panel can refer to should they need more
information/clarification. Entries should be sent to awards@btc.co.uk
Q. When do I find out if we have made the
finals?
A. The finalists will be announced on the
14TH March 2013.

A. The winners will be announced at the
awards ceremony on the 23rd May and listed afterwards on our website and in the
winner’s issue of Green IT Magazine.
Q. Do we have to attend the awards dinner?
A. No, attendance is by no means
compulsory. Every year we have competing and winning companies that are
unfortunately unable to attend for various reasons. In the event of your
company winning and you not being present your apologies are passed on to the
room and your award will be sent to you after the event, free of all costs.
Q. Why do you have an awards dinner?
A. We believe that making it to the finals
and possibly winning an award deserves to be celebrated. The awards ceremony is
a fantastic chance for companies to treat clients, thank staff and celebrate
their success in a fun atmosphere, whilst also creating an ideal environment
for networking.

company on the evening, is that possible? A. As long as they are happy to sit next to
