The past year has given us many reasons to celebrate. To start, we celebrated Okta’s 10-year anniversary and marked the occasion by bringing Oktane back home to San Francisco. We expanded our global reach, opening new offices across Europe and North America. And most importantly, we continued to work with our exceptional customers, who are leading the charge in driving innovation in their respective industries. We’d like to recognize the individuals who are exploring new ways of doing things at their organizations. These Okta customers have been implementing modern technology to solve some of today’s toughest business challenges, including adapting to modern cloud architecture, seamlessly bringing together teams post-M&A, and embracing a security-first approach to IT. After the difficult task of choosing 37 finalists from a large pool of amazing individuals, our panel voted on a winner for each of our eight categories: The Challenger, The Evangelist, The Lightning.
