MediaConnect is proud to announce that Red Rock Consulting, one of Australia's most successful technology consulting firms is the new naming rights sponsor for this year's IT Journalism Awards.

The Red Rock Consulting IT Journalism Awards will be held on April 16th at Star City Casino and will once again represent the pinnacle of achievement in IT journalism.

MediaConnect CEO Phil Sim said he was delighted to have Red Rock Consulting take over the prestigious naming rights sponsorship.

"I think it's fabulous that we have an Australian organisation sponsoring these very important awards," said Sim. "Red Rock Consulting is only ten years old but has grown to turn over close to $100 million annually and I'm very proud to associate that kind of local success story with our IT Journalism awards program."

Red Rock Consulting CEO Jonathan Rubinsztein said: “We are extremely excited to be the naming rights sponsor of the IT Journalism Awards. As the leading Oracle consulting business in Australia and New Zealand, having grown from nothing to 400 consultants across Australia and New Zealand in the last 10 years, we do feel it opportune for us to take this sponsorship and support the Australian technology industry."

Sim thanked Sun Microsystems for their support over the past seven years.

"Without Sun these awards would never have gotten off the ground and they have been nothing but supportive in all the time we've worked together on the awards. Red Rock Consulting is one of Australia's biggest partners of Oracle and a Sun partner as well, so it's a fitting company to continue the great tradition of these awards."

Tickets are now available here. For more information about the 8th Annual Red Rock Consulting IT Journalism Awards, please see www.thelizzies.com.
