TROY – Award
finalists for the Automation Alley 15th Annual Awards Gala have been selected, and
online voting will be open to the public until Sept. 18 to help determine a
winner in each of five categories.
Automation Alley, Michigan’s largest technology business association,
celebrates Southeast Michigan’s thriving tech economy each year at its awards
gala, an event that consistently draws some of the region’s most influential
leaders in business, government and academia.
Finalists are chosen from a list of nominees in each award category, and an
online voting process contributes to the final selection of winners.
“The awards gala is one of my favorite Automation Alley traditions,” said
Automation Alley Executive Director Ken Rogers. “It’s a night devoted to those
who are driving the tech economy in this region, and their stories are never
short of inspiring. It continues to be my honor to recognize the talent and
innovation rooted right here in Southeast Michigan.”
The Automation Alley 15th Annual Awards Gala will be at the Royal Park Hotel in
Rochester, Mich. on Oct. 2. The event includes gourmet dinner, an after-party
featuring the S3 Cigar Patio, a craft beer tasting bar featuring select Atwater
Brewery beers, live entertainment, and the newly added “Innovation Alley,” a
rare collection of technology artifacts from the Detroit Historical
Society.
The price to attend the 15th Annual Awards Gala is $200 per person for members
and finalists, $275 perperson for non-members, or $1,750 for a table of
