How to enter

These Awards are free to enter and are open to all third-party technology vendors/providers of market and reference data services for the financial services industry, regardless of their size, location or ownership. Organizations may enter as many categories as they wish, as long as they genuinely believe they meet the criteria listed beneath the categories. The judging panel will consider all entries to each category. 

About these awards:  Entries to the 2024 Sell-Side Technology Awards are free and are online-only and consist of two sections: Section A and Section B. Information in Section A will be included in the winners’ category write-ups, which will be published on the Waterstechnology website. All information contained in Section B  will remain strictly confidential.

About this year’s category write-ups (highlight sheets):  Based on conversations with a number of WatersTechnology’s readers and past category winners, we have decided to change the format of the winners’ write-ups. The new format will include the information contained in section A. Therefore, it is in the entrants’ interest to provide accurate and detailed information in response to all the questions in section A.

Entry advice: The judging panel review multiple entries in each category. It is therefore essential that you choose your words carefully, focusing on what you believe to be your competitive advantage as opposed to what all other providers are offering. In other words, the judges want to know all about your "secret sauce" and not about the functionality that makes your firm just another service provider in the marketplace. Please ensure that you use full and formal product names.
