Alan Alper - Gomez, Inc. The White Paper Awards were established to recognize outstanding white papers. A white paper provides an overview of a technology product, trend, solution, service, or architecture. In doing so, it outlines the importance of the topic and the thinking behind its structure compared to other alternatives. White papers are widely used by technology vendors as a way to communicate and explain in-depth information. They are highly valued by technology and business decision makers as a way to understand and learn about technology. Were pleased to continue to recognize and reward the best writers of the most effective and educational technology white papers. We received over 400 high quality entries from hundreds of companies around the world. This demonstrates once again that the technology white paper is a well established medium that continues to be valued by technology buyers and marketers alike said Jay Habegger, CEO of Bitpipe.
