Big Blue honours InfoReady

CRN Fast50 alumnus (2012 No.6) InfoReady has been named IBM’s A/NZ information management partner of the year for 2012.

In what marked a stellar year for the Melbourne-based business intelligence specialist, it also added to the trophy cabinet global information management rookie of the year.

"It's a huge honour to be picked as best in Australia and New Zealand, and a big affirmation of our growth,’ InfoReady managing director Tristan Sternson said in a statement.

“I believe what sets InfoReady apart is our pure focus on information management.  Our team are highly skilled and qualified consultants, and we encourage them to continue their research so we can offer clients the very latest ideas and thought leadership”.
