We're excited to highlight some of the 2022 Excellence Awards Customer and Partner nominees.
The Oracle Excellence Awards are open to any organization that uses services under the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure umbrella and has achieved extraordinary results leveraging our technologies.
We have two main goals: to celebrate our extraordinary customers and to showcase their remarkable success stories on Oracle.com.
To prioritize the health and safety of our customers, we’ll present the awards virtually, highlight winners on the awards homepage, and ship each winner’s trophy to their preferred mailing address.
We expect a high volume of submissions, so we’ll announce up to five finalists per category.
No, the Oracle Excellence Awards are global. What’s more, to make sure all regions are equally represented, each category will have five finalists, each representing a different region: North America; Latin America; Europe, Middle East, and Africa; Asia Pacific; and Japan.
Yes. If you know of a person or organization that deserves recognition, please do. Be sure to include their contact details so we can reach out to see if they want to participate.
Absolutely. Apply for as many awards as are appropriate. Depending on your submission, the judging panel might move your nomination to another category if they feel it’s a better fit.
Our judges are looking to highlight some of the incredible work our customers have been doing in recent years to increase their organization’s performance, lower costs, create positive impacts, and improve user experience for both employees and customers. When submitting your nomination, it helps considerably to include metrics and measurable results to demonstrate the extent of the impact Oracle Cloud Infrastructure has had on the business and its people.
You’ll need information about the customer’s mission and a challenge they faced, how they’ve used Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to help overcome that challenge, and the results they achieved after implementing the solutions.
