Genesys Customer Innovation Awards 2019 Winners Announced

Mile-high Denver, Colorado, is known for being surrounded by beautiful mountain peaks. They love their beer, and they love their Denver Nuggets.

This year, Genesys added their own love to Denver with Xperience19, the company’s flagship customer experience conference.

Xperience19 is all about learning. With an array of sessions on product enhancements, top innovations, in-depth breakout sessions and expert advice, attendees go back to their jobs better informed and ready to take action.

But, alongside all of this, Genesys wanted to spread that love a little bit more by announcing the Genesys Customer Innovation Awards winners.

The 2019 Customer Innovation Award Winners

The 2019 Customer Innovation Awards were focused on sharing strategies about how different organizations have addressed business challenges and pain points in new and creative ways using Genesys technologies.
