TechPoint, the growth initiative for Indiana’s tech ecosystem, recognized Indiana’s tech builders with their announcement of the second annual Tech 25 Class of 2016.
Noelle Webster-Milam, Lead Experience Architect at SEP has been named a 2016 winner.
In 2015, TechPoint launched the Tech 25, a prestigious selection of twenty-five individuals who are critical and exceptional performers helping to grow our community’s tech and tech-enabled companies.
Winners were selected from three main role categories, reinforcing the core roles that building product and building revenue play: 10 in tech product/R&D, 8 in sales/marketing, and 7 in “other.” In addition to being star performers at their companies, winners are committed team players who build others up through mentoring, volunteering, and positive example and are committed to contributing to the broader tech community.
“I’m honored to be included in TechPoint’s Tech 25 Class of 2016,” said Webster-Milam. “It’s been so exciting to play an integral part in SEP’s growth from an engineering company to a product design and development company. It’s also been very exciting to see that change make an impact on our client’s work and their continued successes. I’ve learned so much since I’ve started at SEP and I believe it’s the culture, leadership, and my driven peers who push me to be better each and every day.”
