Built In Announces the 100 Winners of Its Awards Program Honoring Rising Women in Tech

Built In is pleased to release its 2022 Moxie Awards Program, which honors rising women in tech. See the full winners list below and learn more about the 100 winners here.

The Moxie Awards Program Celebrates Women in Tech
“I’m extending my sincerest congratulations to the winners of the 2022 Moxie Awards Program,” saya Maria Christopoulos Katris, CEO, Built In. “I look forward to seeing where they’ll take their careers in tech. Based on their achievements thus far, along with their demonstrable potential, it’s clear they’re on a trajectory to become the next generation of leaders in tech. I’m so proud Built In can be a forum in which to honor them.” 

The 100 winners work across a range of tech and tech-adjacent disciplines, including but not limited to engineering, marketing, product and design. What they share in common is “moxie,” a quality Built In defines as a combination of courage, determination, energy and know-how. 

The Tech Industry and Esteemed Judges’ Panel Joins in Mission to Elevate Women
“We received more than twice the number of entries we did last year, and 2022 represents only the second year of this program,” says Katris. “This dramatic uptick in nominations is a testament to the industry’s enthusiasm for celebrating women on the rise. And it’s the same level of commitment we saw from our 2022 judges’ panel. These extraordinary women leaders had the unenviable task of selecting winners from more than 900 incredible nominees. I consider myself fortunate to call them partners in our mission to elevate women across tech.”

The judges’ panel included 35 women leaders with far-fanging areas of expertise, including technology, design, customer success, DEI, marketing and women’s professional advancement, to name just a few.

ABOUT THE 2022 MOXIE AWARDS
Built In’s 2022 Moxie Awards Program celebrates outstanding women in tech whose leadership qualities, expertise and passion for their discipline indicate that they’re likely to advance to the pinnacles of their careers. A judges’ panel of celebrated women leaders in tech selected 100 winners, using scorecards with identifying information removed. To be nominated, participants must have met eligibility requirements: They must identify as women, whether through gender identity, gender expression or sex; serve in roles such as director, individual contributor or manager but don’t serve on executive or C-Suite teams; and work in traditional tech roles (engineering) or in tech-adjacent roles, which includes any discipline that supports a company’s technology.
