The Future Tech Awards recognize the best people, products, and services from across the U.S. technology sector. We're asking Windows Central readers to vote on the best products and professionals in multiple categories to help us honor the ground-breaking innovations of this year.

There are four prizes that make up the Future Tech Awards:

  • Future Choice — The best products, as voted for by Future Tech's editorial committee.
  • Reader's Choice — The best products as voted for by Future Tech's readers.
  • Future 50 — The top 50 people, across key tech industry categories.
  • Tech Hall of Fame — Decorated industry veterans and deserved recipients of the Lifetime Achievement Award.

Nominations for the Future 50 Awards and Future Choice Awards are open now, and they close on December 4, 2020. The Future 50 awards recognize the top 50 professionals impacting technology across five sectors, including young leaders, content creators, and visionary CEOs.

The nominations for Future Tech Awards include but are not limited to products, services, and people within the Microsoft and Windows ecosystems. That's why we're asking you, our readers, to participate.
