The results of Recharger Magazine’s Readers’ Choice Awards are now in! Congratulations to everyone who was nominated.
Some categories had a few winners that were very close in votes, which is great news for the industry. Having so many great companies fosters innovative and creative thinking!
Some categories had a leader in addition to a second and sometimes third choice that held enough of a percentage to warrant mentioning. Other categories had a clear top winner, indicating recognition for going above and beyond the call of duty.
The entire industry had the chance to vote by phone, fax or Internet during the official voting period in August. The ballot was based on the results of the earlier open nomination period; write-in candidates were also accepted.
Awards Ceremony
The awards will be officially presented at a ceremony the first day of Recharger Magazine’s World Expo 2002, Wednesday, Oct. 23. The ceremony will be held at 8 a.m. in the World Expo registration area at the Riviera Hotel and Casino.
Make sure you attend so you can help recognize the winners of this year’s Readers’ Choice Awards!
