This epic awards program honors IT professionals who, like true superheroes, go above and beyond to save the day for their teams.

Open to IT champions from organizations of all sizes and industries—from startups to large enterprises—the IT Superhero Awards recognizes those who make extraordinary contributions across all vertical markets. Category winners and the Ultimate IT Superhero will be announced at the Connection Technology Summit in Phoenix, AZ, on October 2, 2025. The nomination process is open through July 7, 2025.

Jamal Khan, Connection Chief Growth and Innovation Officer, said, “Across the U.S., organizations are staffed with IT professionals who have leveled up to protect valuable data and infrastructure, solve complex technological challenges before they impact the business, and keep colleagues and customers online, productive, and secure. As we proudly celebrate the 5th anniversary of our IT Superhero Awards program, it’s an honor to recognize these heroes and their unique abilities, making them truly powerful: IT Superheroes. I look forward to sharing their inspirational stories with the world and highlighting those who go above and beyond for others.”

Saluting the diverse and unique abilities of technology professionals, the IT Superhero Awards recognize winners across 5 categories:

  • Best Team Leader (Leads to success, inspires others to greatness)
  • Best Rookie (A fresh IT pro who performs like a seasoned pro)
  • Best Catch (Made an amazing save, big or small, that averted disaster)
  • Best Superpower (Capable of performing astonishing feats, no matter the deadline)
  • Most Unshakeable (Always calm, patient, and focused in the face of IT chaos)

A grand-prize winner, chosen from the 5 category winners, will be named the Ultimate IT Superhero.

Susan Chandler, Technology Director, Jasper City Schools, Alabama—awarded the 2024 Ultimate IT Superhero and 2024 Best Superpower awards—said, “As an IT leader, keeping an open mind and surrounding yourself with knowledgeable individuals is essential. Staying focused on the IT goals you truly believe in is key to successful implementation. Reflecting on being named the 2024 Ultimate IT Superhero and Best Superpower, I feel incredibly honored and grateful to Connection for this recognition. Connection is a company that not only delivers IT solutions but consistently puts the customer first.”

Winners of the 2025 IT Superhero Awards will have the opportunity to select one of three charities—Feeding America, NPower, and the National Center for Women & Information Technology (NCWIT)—to receive a $1,500 donation from Connection in their name and a $3,000 donation in the name of the Ultimate IT Superhero.
