InfotechLead.com, a prominent IT news website targeting IT decisions makers and CIOs at enterprises, government, SMBs and start-ups, today announced InfotechLead Award 2017.
Amazon, an e-commerce company base in the U.S., was selected as the InfotechLead Award 2017 E-commerce Company.
Amazon has significantly expanded its e-commerce platform beyond its traditional markets. Amazon is the second largest e-commerce player after Flipkart. India is projected to be the second biggest online retail market for the company after the U.S. Amazon has invested heavily focusing on diversity of products, technology innovation, and R&D.
With an investment of $16.1 billion, Amazon became the top R&D spender in 2016 among tech companies in the U.S., which directly translates into productivity and innovation. In 2016, Amazon pledged $3 billion investment in India. Amazon may not beat Walmart for buying Indian e-commerce company Flipkart. But Amazon is changing the global e-commerce market.
Winners of InfotechLead Award 2017 were selected after individual consultation with the following jury members, who assembled at a major IT event in India end of last year.
# V Ananthanarayan, CIO of Sundaram Finance

# Sanjeev Kumar, head of tech and security at Diageo
# Shijo Joseph, CIO of East West Seed
# GT Venkateshar Rao, IT department at Telengana Government

Kizhakedath Media Services Pvt. Ltd., the publishers of InfotechLead.com, had received hundreds of nominations during the selection process.
“The jury members evaluated the winners based on the company’s contribution to the IT department, business outcome, their growth and the growth of their enterprise and individual clients,” Baburajan Kizhakedath, editor of InfotechLead.com, said.
