New IDC Best in Future of Connectedness North America Awards Open for SubmissionsInternational Data Corporation (IDC) today announced the inaugural IDC Future Enterprise Best in Future of Connectedness North America Awards, designed to recognize organizations that are able to rethink the way people, things, processes, and applications connect to enable the seamless flow of data and drive business outcomes.

"Connectivity is the common denominator in how people, things and processes interact. For consumers and organizations, increased reliance on digital engagement requires ubiquitous, reliable, and robust connectivity. As digital interactions continue to increase, however, it's clear that connectivity is not yet seamless or pervasive," said Paul Hughes, research director, Future of Connectedness at IDC. "Our Best in Future of Connectedness Awards will shine a light on those organizations that have successfully addressed this unevenness in connectivity across different environments and locations to successfully meet employee and consumer expectations."
