The firm helps businesses implement effective digital user experience initiatives for big-name clients including Telefonica (O2) and Dixons Carphone Group, and will help the hosts Awards International put on the biggest UK Digital Experience Awards to date.

The finals event is taking place on July 12 at the Wembley Hilton, and entries are now open for organisations from across the UK to enter. Shortlisted finalists will be invited to give a presentation before an expert panel of judges in the morning before their entries are scored and the winners announced during a gala afternoon luncheon ceremony.

Finalists will compete in 23 categories, including best use of AR or VR, Utilities, and Not for Profit & Charity. New categories this year include the best Restaurant, Take Away & Delivery and Publishing.

Joining the ever-growing judges’ line-up for 2018 are Gordon Rimmer, Director of Marketing at Connect Managed Services; Kate Thompson, Founder and Managing Director of Business 3.0; and the Founder and CEO of Usability247 himself, Paul Blunden. Paul is also Chairman of the Awards and has been an advocate of the awards since day 1!
