Apart from celebrating their 12th anniversary last December, YugaTech also revealed the finalists for their 2017 Choice Awards. There were a lot of interesting entries and contenders across 14 categories but ultimately there can only be a chosen few. So, it is with great pleasure and honour that the team presents to you the winners of YugaTech’s Choice Awards 2017.
The event was held at Hole in the Wall, Century City Mall, Makati City and was co-presented by Digital Walker.
Sidenote: Awardees were chosen by the Readers and Editors during the voting period of the Awards and only brands and products that were officially launched in the Philippines were included. Sponsors of the Awards were also excluded to avoid conflict of interest.
