SC Magazine US has
announced their finalists for their SC Magazine Awards 2013. The major categories are Readers Trust,
Excellence Awards, and Professional Awards.
Print subscribers to SC Magazine get to vote on the Readers Trust
awards. A panel of judges are responsible for the Excellence and Professional
Awards. The winners will be announced at
the 2013 SC Awards U.S. to be held on Feb. 26, 2013 in San Francisco during RSA
2013. These awards aren’t part of RSA
2013 San Francisco. Companies like to
win these awards. It gives them recognition and bragging rights. Smaller
companies, in particular like the visibility this gives them. Larger companies will sometimes “argue” that
there’s little upside for them to participate, since if they don’t receive an
award, or become a finalist, they lose
out, with little upside if they become a finalist or win. No risk, no reward!
