UKOUG Partner of The Year Awards 2015

The 2015 UKOUG Partner of the Year Awards (PYA) event took place last Thursday, my first PYA and it proved to be a fun and exciting event. The full list of this year's Gold, Silver and Bronze winners can be viewed here so I won't name them all but suffice to say, all of them are deserved winners. 

The Partner of the Year Awards are unique as they are voted for by Oracle customers. Nominations are assessed by a panel of UKOUG volunteers to produce a shortlist across 19 categories that is presented to members for voting. In 2014 the number of customers voting doubled compared to the previous year. The number of votes cast this year has increased by a further 70% to over 4,600 which goes to show why these awards inspire so much respect and admiration in the partner community.

As I can't name all the winners here, I'll just show you a photo of the winners of one of the fun categories, the best dressed male group of the evening. This award went to Steltix who were all looking very dapper - congratulations to them for winning this fun award (and for their ,rather more serious, bronze award for Middleware Partner of the Year). 

More photos are now up on the UKOUG Facebook page.



Next weekend I'm off to Oracle Open World so will be blogging regularly with updates from the event.
