Indiana’s technology initiative has announced its Tech 25 Class of 2017. TechPoint says the list honors the state’s "tech builders" who aren’t top-level executives, but are critical to growing the state’s industry.

The organization says nearly 60 technology companies nominated a team member for this year’s class. The honorees span a wide range of roles including software developers, financial analysts and marketing directors.

The class is divided into three categories: product development, sales/marketing and "other." Honorees were chosen by 15 past Tech 25 Award winners and industry professionals based on criteria including professional contributions and community commitment.

The honorees will be celebrated at an event September 7 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in conjunction with the Indy Women in Tech LPGA Championship.
