Greetings from Progress Exchange 2014! We kicked off the conference last night with the Global Partner Awards Dinner where we recognized all the great work and innovation our partners are doing across the globe.
Now in its 13th year, the Progress Global Partner Awards recognize partners across 15+ categories using one or more of Progress’ core solutions for application development and deployment, including Pacific, OpenEdge, Rollbase, and Corticon.
We especially enjoyed presenting the first ever Spark Award to our partner QAD in tribute to Gordon Fleming, someone whom we miss tremendously, and getting the entire QAD team up on stage to share in the celebration of such a special person who was near and dear to Progress.
Here are a few pictures from the night as well as a run down of categories and winners:
