ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. With the local economy fully reopening on July 1, this year’s Flying 40 awards for New Mexico’s fast-growing technology companies will go live again with an onsite celebratory bash at the Albuquerque Botanical Gardens on Sept. 22.
Last October, the annual awards ceremony took place online after being postponed by nearly six months because of the pandemic. But with the state now steadily progressing toward a safe, post-COVID-19 environment, the 24th annual celebration is ready to bust out of its online chains, said Sherman McCorkle, president and CEO of the Sandia Science & Technology Park Development Corp., the program organizer.
