Event registration for the awards dinner gala is available at this link. “Digital transformation presents organizations with the opportunity to improve strategic decision-making, efficiency, and communications. Winners of this year’s awards program have demonstrated that they’re capitalizing on these opportunities and proving themselves to be innovative users of the latest technologies,” said Alex Parkinson, senior researcher and director of SNCR. “Not only are these organizations putting technology to use, but they’re also adept at measuring their results. That’s what made them really stand out to our Fellows.” (Runners-up received an honorable mention if they achieved a threshold score from our judges) Category: Communications, Communities, and Collaboration Category: Innovation in Digital Experience Category: Multi-Platform Communications Category: Social Data for Customer Experience and Operational Efficiency Category: Storytelling Category: Fellows Choice This year, the Fellows Choice Awards focused on organizations making an exemplary effort to address fake news. As part of this focus, the awards event will include a brief panel discussion about fake news, featuring the honorees, and moderated by SNCR Advisory Board member Jeff Pundyk, editorial director of Techonomy. “The scourge of fake news and disinformation has revealed itself to be a unique modern challenge that’s affecting organizations and individuals in a variety of different ways,” said Jen McClure, SNCR founder and advisory board chair. “As our Fellows continue to investigate the ramifications of fake news and best practices for addressing the problem, we’re delighted to honor those who are leading the way to identify innovative solutions.” In its 12-year history, the SNCR Excellence in New Communications Awards program has honored hundreds of organizations and individuals through this prestigious awards program.
