NBQSA awards for local ICT achievements

The British Computer Society (BCS) Sri Lanka Section launched the National Best Quality Software Awards (NBQSA) 2008 which recognises exceptional local ICT achievements.

NBQSA has offered opportunities to individuals and organisations which have made outstanding contributions to develop the ICT industry in Sri Lanka.

Chairman, BCS Sri Lanka Section, Sujeeva Dissanayake said NBQSA has gained recognition locally and internationally over the years and its Seal of Excellence is regarded as the symbol of achievement and serves as a vessel to gain reputation for ICT products.

NBQSA launched by BCS in 1998 has helped to improve standards and the quality of local ICT products and services to compete in the international market.

Winners of the competition become eligible for the Asia Pacific ICT Awards (APICTA), an international awards program launched to increase ICT awareness in the community and assist in bridging the digital divide.

The NBQSA will be held on October 17 at the Waters Edge, Battaramulla.
