LINK Development other nominations were shortlisted in three additional categories out of a total of 125 entries received by ACN this year.

Held at the Westin Hotel in Dubai, ACN Arab Technology Awards 2008 gathered more than 300 IT regional professionals to recognize and award the best practices in the IT sector across different categories; vertical projects, vendors, individuals, integrators and service providers.

LINK Development's work for Egypt's national airline portal had previously won first class recognition in a Cambridge University survey on airline portal usability and two silver awards for 'Best Airline Website' at the Egypt and Pan Arab Web Awards.

'We are very proud that our work continues to impress the industry and win awards on both solution and user experience levels,'commented Hanan Abdel Meguid, CEO of LINK Development.

The company places great emphasis on innovation, and through its offices in Egypt, UAE, KSA, Qatar and Italy, it has continuously delivered various cutting-edge solutions for the aviation, automotive, e-government, retail, telecommunications, banking and finance and media and communications sectors.

'We have always believed that creativity and our ability of turning technology into business solutions that meet our customers' needs will set us apart from other companies,' added Hanan. 'With this recognition, we are even more certain that this is the way forward.'

The company has extensive knowledge and proficiency in Microsoft Web 2.0 technology, which is the second generation of web based communications and services. One of its most prominent features is richer, more interactive and user friendly interfaces based on the new technologies, and more enhanced graphical presentations.

It therefore comes as no surprise that the company's other work has been shortlisted in the 'Banking and Finance Implementation of the Year' and 'Professional Services Implementation of the Year' categories. On the corporate level, the company was shortlisted and close to winning the 'Enterprise Service Provider of the Year' award.
