Afiniti had the honor of receiving the inaugural Hero Award for the ‘Best Use of AI in Enterprise’ at the 39th annual GITEX Technology Week.

GITEX, the biggest technology show in the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia, brought together over 100,000 visitors from 140 countries to discuss the trends shaping technology today, including smart cities, future mobility, 5G, and artificial intelligence.

For the first time ever, GITEX hosted an awards ceremony to celebrate the industry disruptors and technology leaders at the forefront of the digital transformation. The inaugural event honored ambitious projects from all corners of the tech ecosystem across 9 key categories.

Afiniti’s Chief Marketing Officer Chris Farmer proudly accepted the award on stage from Josh Constine, Editor at Large at TechCrunch.

“GITEX is the leading space where technology and innovation are discussed in this region, it’s an area where we are starting to make strides in and so this is really exciting for us. This is our first year here, and so to be part of GITEX and getting involved with the awards has been an additional benefit. We are extremely happy to be here celebrating with everyone,” said Farmer.
