Shining Stars: Recognizing Exceptional Partner Program Members
As we reflect on the success of Global Business Analysis Day, it’s time to celebrate some true shining stars in IIBA’s enhanced Partner Program.
This year, our complimentary 24-hour virtual event drew attendees across five time zones, kicking off in Asia Pacific and culminating in the Americas. Our theme, Analysis Everywhere, spotlighted the universal value of business analysis across diverse industries and roles.
A highlight of the event was the annual awards ceremony, where we honoured outstanding IIBA chapters, volunteers, and Partner Program members who have made exceptional contributions to advancing the business analysis profession.
Thank you to all who participated, sharing insights that fuelled meaningful discussions on the global impact of business analysis. Detailed descriptions of all the awards presented can be found on the IIBA Annual Awards Program webpage.
