This past Thursday, the annual PriceCheck Tech & E-Commerce Awards went down at the Westin Hotel in Cape Town, marking the third instalment of the grand event, which pays tribute to South Africa’s best and up-and-coming tech innovators.
This year’s awards was undoubtedly the biggest and most exciting to date, with the likes of Dan Nichol on hosting duties for the night, along with KFM’s Darren Simpson presenting a handful of the awards, and author and futurologist Clem Sunter entertaining the attendees as the captivating and informative guest speaker for the evening. But of course, the night was all about the nominees and winners.
