"We are delighted to be included on this prestigious listing for another year," said Gerald Shields, Aflac chief information officer. "Mobile Aflac's ability to deliver business value through technology innovation and execution has helped to support our sales force in providing efficient service for our customers."
InformationWeek has identified and honored the nation's most innovative users of information technology with its annual listing, now in its 20th year, and has tracked the technology, strategies, investments and administrative practices of America's best-known companies. The list is unique among corporate rankings because it spotlights the power of innovation in information technology, rather than simply identifying the biggest IT spenders.
"For 20 years, the InformationWeek 500 has honored the most innovative users of business technology," said InformationWeek Editor-in-Chief Rob Preston. "Year after year, InformationWeek 500 companies harness technology to improve efficiency, boost productivity, drive revenue and establish a competitive advantage. We applaud this year's winners, and the CIOs and other executives whose ingenuity and risk-taking are at the center of business technology innovation."
The 2008 InformationWeek 500 companies were revealed on September 15, 2008, at a gala awards ceremony held during the InformationWeek 500 Conference at the St. Regis Resort in Monarch Beach, Calif. The complete list of companies is available for online viewing at www.informationweek.com or in the September 15 issue of InformationWeek magazine.
