The Next Gen award is for an individual working in any sectors of the industry, including but not limited to communication service providers, suppliers, and trade bodies.

Entrants can represent any functional discipline in a business but must have entered the industry within the last 10 years and must have worked for their current employer for a minimum of two years. There is no age limit for the individual, so they may have had an earlier career in another sector.

The judges are looking for evidence of an individual who stands head and shoulders above their peers.

Entry is free for this category. 

Entry closes on Friday 24th October at 6pm BST.
