who have seen the effects of a problem in their communities and creatively deployed
technology to tackle it, with the aim of inspiring more individuals to use technology
to make a positive difference.

Candidates for the 2016 NT100 will comprise a combination of public nominations 
and Nominet Trust’s own research, with people around the world invited to nominate
the projects that have inspired them by visiting the NT100’s home, the Social Tech
Guide, and completing a [short online form](http://socialtech.org.uk/nominate).
