“Due to circumstances of the last few years, this year’s competition was especially important,” said Aijaz Khan, Publisher of PAX International and PAX Tech, at last night's festivities. “This is our first time honoring the winners in-person since the start of the pandemic. We are fiercely proud of this industry and its thirst for success. We are so grateful to you and our loyal readers for your support through challenging times. In 2023, we expect the response to the PAX awards to be even bigger and louder as travel recovers.”
