And the Finalists Are…
We’ve chosen three extraordinary finalists for this prestigious award. Here are previews of their stories:
- Indiana University (United States) is a multi-campus public university serving more than 130,000 students, faculty, and staff at seven campuses and two regional centers across the state, and worldwide through its online programs. IU uses the Citrix platform to extend its educational resources to everyone. One example is the virtual desktop for people who are visually impaired. IU is committed to ensuring that all students have the opportunity to achieve their academic goals.
- Schroders (United Kingdom) has helped clients plan for the future for over two centuries by focusing on long-term investment. Schroders is always innovating, adapting and evolving to suit an ever-changing world. In September 2018, they moved headquarters to new purpose-built offices for 2,500 London-based employees. With Citrix solutions as a foundation, Schroders implemented a truly mobile and digital work environment for everyone, with highly flexible virtual technology leveraged for use on the desktop and in meeting rooms in the building.
- ZF (Germany) is a global technology company that supplies systems for passenger cars, commercial vehicles and industrial technology, enabling the next generation of mobility.
