WATCH: Women and Diversity in Channel Awards Q&A with Anna Pulisciano, operations director at Softcat plc

Softcat's Pusciliano explains why sponsoring the Rising Star category was important to the reseller

CRN's Women and Diversity in Channel Awards 2023 serve to highlight the channel's best and brightest for their efforts to make the industry a better place to work for everyone.

This year's awards, in particular, were a testament to the growing diversity of the UK IT sector, but also a reminder of how much still remains to be done.

In the above Q&A video, Softcat's Anna Pulisciano explains why the reseller decided to sponsor the Rising Star category this year, what the award could mean for the winner and what the WDCAs mean to the company, including allowing them to attract a wider and more diverse pool of applicants and to push for more representation among the wider industry.
