Toronto, ON—October 25, 2019—

The selection criteria for the Best Tech Workplace for Diversity​ is based on the following:

  • Implementation of diverse hiring and employment practices

  • Collaboration and inclusive thinking to produce an innovative product ​

  • Provision of tools and resources to explore and celebrate differences ​

“We’re excited to have not one, but two awards recognizing diverse thinking and collaboration this year.
