Winners will be featured in the InformationWeek 500 issue and recognized at the InformationWeek Conference and Awards Gala in September 2013.
Now in its 25th year, the InformationWeek 500 tracks the technology, strategies, investments and administrative practices of the best-known companies in the country. 2012 winners include Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Deere & Co., Zynga Inc., Vail Resorts Inc., E. & J. Gallo Winery, among others.
