Technology Business Management has helped these businesses overcome challenges and innovate during trying times and I’m incredibly proud to celebrate the achievements of this year’s winners.”
Nominees are evaluated for quantitative results like cost savings, as well as other factors including the ability of teams to shift money from run-the-business to change-the-business, fund innovation programs, optimize public cloud spending, and deliver high return on investment from project and product portfolios.
