In November, I told you about how the applications deadline for the WSA's 12th annual Industry Achievement Awards gala was coming up Dec. 1. Well, the state's tech organization wanted to give you a little more time, so applications are now due Dec. 15.

The event will recognize the state's most outstanding technology achievements in a variety of categories, including Business Product of the Year, Consumer Product or Service of the Year, Service Provider of the Year, Best Use of Technology in the Government or Non-Profit Sector, Technology Innovator of the Year and Breakthrough Technology of the Year.
