About:

Since 2005, TAG has hosted our annual Excalibur Awards program in collaboration with our Business & Technology Alliance society. This awards program is to recognize the many companies throughout Georgia that are classified as “tech-enabled,” or buyers of technology, not producers, but rely on the technology they purchase to excel in their respective business space.

Our Excalibur Awards program is held in the metro-Atlanta area and typically has an attendee count of 450-500 individuals. 

Listed below are the recipients of a 2008 Excalibur Award:
