Ansys (NASDAQ: ANSS) has been named the winner of a Gold
Stevie® Award in the Achievement in Extended Enterprise
Learning Programs category in the fifth annual Stevie Awards for
Great Employers. The award recognizes Ansys' Simulation World, the
world's largest virtual event for research and development leaders
and engineering simulation thought leaders and users across
industries.
The Stevie Awards for Great Employers recognize the world's best
employers and the human resources professionals, teams,
achievements and HR-related products and suppliers who help to
create and drive great places to work. More than 700 nominations
from organizations of all sizes were submitted this year for
consideration in a wide range of HR-related categories.
As one of the judges for the Stevie Awards noted, "Ansys' effort
to orchestrate such a complicated, technically difficult and
logistically challenging event was very impressive... but more
impressive was the fact they were able to successfully execute the
event. Given the time pressure, COVID-19 and the fact that so many
clients, peers and industry leaders would be participating, this is
quite an impressive accomplishment. Well done!"
"When the COVID-19 pandemic prevented us from connecting at
physical conferences, our team brought together executives,
designers and analysts from leading-edge Fortune 500 companies,
startups and academic institutions to virtually inspire each other
with examples of product development agility and innovation," said
Lynn Ledwith, vice president of
marketing for Ansys. "I am proud of the more than 200 speakers, 65
sponsors and 800 Ansys employees who collaborated to make our
virtual event such a success."
More than 90 professionals worldwide participated in the judging
process to select this year's Stevie Award winners.
"In the fifth edition of the Stevie Awards for Great Employers,
the judges were impressed by the Stevie winners who - during the
crises we've confronted this year - continue to dedicate each day
to making the lives of their employees and teams better through
training, software, work-from-home plans, and more. We are pleased
to celebrate them in 2020 and look forward to what they will
accomplish in 2021," said Maggie
Gallagher, president of the Stevie Awards.
