Meet the Digital Heroes Who Are Making an Impact
By Alex Smith / October 3, 2018
Earlier this year, we launched AppDirect’s Digital Heroes program, a global effort to discover and honor the innovative thinkers and risk-takers who are finding new ways to address digital business challenges and transform their organizations.
The response has been overwhelming. We received over 100 nominations highlighting individuals in a wide range of industries, from all seniority levels, working in dozens of countries. Some honorees have decades-long careers in technology while others are just starting out, but all share a passion for digital technology and using it to make a difference at work and in the larger world.
AppDirect received over 100 Digital Heroes nominations.
Click here to meet the 30 honorees and learn more about their stories. Later this month, we’ll honor our Digital Heroes at Engage, our annual event in San Francisco. In the months to come, we’ll also dig deeper into the digital transformation journeys of some of our honorees and share their challenges, as well as advice and best practices for overcoming them.
We hope you find inspiration in the profiles of our 2018 Digital Heroes, and we look forward to hearing more stories like these—perhaps even your story—in 2019.
Alex Smith is Customer Marketing Manager at AppDirect.
