A SEARCH to find Scotland's best innovators has kicked off.
Folk from across Scotland are being asked to nominate their top techies for the awards, which will be announced in April.
Applications have opened for the 13th annual Digital Technology Awards, run by tech trade body ScotlandIS.
The awards will recognise the industry's most innovative individuals and celebrate the strength of the industry as well as talent from businesses of all sizes.
