We’re delighted to announce that we’ve been named a Finalist in the British Data Awards
2024.
Event Store has reached the Finalists of the British Data Awards 2024 in the category of 'Start-Up Of The Year' alongside Data Literacy Academy, Definely and Made With Intent.
The British Data Awards is an annual quest to discover and celebrate the UK’s data success stories. Organisations taking part this year range from FTSE 100 heavyweights, public sector pioneers, technology unicorns, fast-growing scale-ups, essential Not-For-Profits, and everything in between.
A record 321 entries were received for the fourth edition of the British Data Awards which means that competition to be named a Finalist proved to be particularly tough, so we’re especially pleased to be announced as a Finalist.
Jason Johnson, Co-Founder of Predatech and British Data Awards judge said:
With so many excellent entries received this year, being named a Finalist in the British Data Awards 2024 really is a great achievement. Our Finalist also remind us of the rich vein of innovation that runs throughout the United Kingdom, and I can’t wait to celebrate all our Finalists in May.”

This year the ‘Data Transformation of the Year’ category received the most entries. Other categories include ‘Data Leader of the Year’ and ‘Technology Company of the Year', while new categories including ‘Data Team of the Year’ and ‘Data Management Solution of the Year’ were introduced to help showcase and celebrate the achievements of a diverse range of organisations and people.
