Sunnie Richer Honored with Lifetime Achievement Award
At last night’s Prometheus Awards, hosted by the Technology Association of Iowa and LWBJ Financial, Doextra Chairwoman, Sunnie Richer, was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award in recognition of her contributions to Iowa’s business community and a successful career in the technology industry. In addition to her award, Doextra was named a finalist in two highly competitive categories (Software Co. of the Year and IT Service Provider of the Year).
“This award is a complete surprise to me,” said Richer. “I am extremely grateful and humbled by the recognition from my peers and the technology community.”
