Today we are very pleased to announce that Comarch has been awarded the 2017 OCF Contributor Award in two categories: Outstanding Company and Outstanding Individual. The ceremony took place in Vancouver B.C, August 14, 2017.

The Open Connectivity Foundation (OCF), a leading Internet of Things (IoT) standards body created its  Annual Outstanding Contributor Awards Program in order to highlight OCF’s member companies as well as individuals who have made exemplary contributions to OCF and its work toward advancing IoT standardization.
