HelpSystems Recognised for Extraordinary IBM i Advocacy and Mentorship, Redoubles Confidence and Commitment to IBM i

HelpSystems today honours four team members who have led the charge in the IBM i community throughout 2020 and have been recognised as IBM Champions for Power Systems – an award extended to fewer than 100 IT professionals globally.

“IBM i has long been recognised as a platform for innovators and today HelpSystems redoubles its commitment to the platform. We are delighted that IBM has rewarded four key players from our team, whose dedication, expertise and passion for IBM i has delivered extraordinary support and growth for our customers throughout 2020”.
