Last week the 2023 Australian Not-for-Profit Tech Awards were presented as part of the annual Connecting Up Conference. The awards recognise the best in technology innovation and service excellence in the not-for-profit sector across Australia. This year over 50 nominations were received across eight categories.

Infoxchange CEO David Spriggs, who also sat on the judging panel, said that the calibre of nominations was of an extremely high standard.

“The 2023 award winners should be very proud of their achievements given the high calibre of nominations and the innovative work the sector is doing to support communities across Australia,”

The ‘Not-for-Profit Technology Innovator of the Year’ award was once again the most hotly contested category, followed closely by the inaugural ‘Best Use of Data for Community Impact’ award, which was won by Mission Australia.
