In 2011, we celebrated the first edition of the Symfony Community Awards, which was only dedicated to reward the Symfony Community members. This year, we launched a new one: the Symfony Business Awards. So we’ll celebrate again the Symfony Community Awards with now the Symfony Business Awards! There are 18 awards divided into these 2 categories: Community and Business.
The Symfony Community Awards are the recognitions for the Symfony Community members who support the best the community through their work, contribution, help… To vote for them it’s very easy: you just need to indicate the name of the person you want to vote for per category (and you think who deserves the more the Award). You can only vote for one person and for yourself if you want to!
Here are the Symfony Community Awards categories: 1. Best Blogger 2. Best Community Support 3. Best Code Contributor 4. Best Documentation Contributor 5. Best Bundle of the year 6. Best Evangelist 7. Personality of the year 8. Best Jeopardy Player 9. Best Symfony Talk
The Symfony Business Awards will distinguish the best practical applications of the Symfony use run by companies. To be rewarded, you have to submit your application for the category you think your website can be the winner of! Fill in the form and submit your application. A special jury composed of outstanding Symfony Community members will examine all the applications submitted and chose the winner! No matter the size of your project, or the size of your website! This award category is a unique opportunity for you to make your project known! But don’t forget that you need to have the permission of your client to submit your application.
