Fragomen is honored as a Gold winner of the 2024 Intranet and Digital Workplace Awards, recognizing the firm's "Immigration Knowledge Library," which was fully restructured and relaunched by Fragomen's Knowledge Group.
Hosted by Step Two, these global awards recognize outstanding contributions to intranets, digital workplaces and digital employee experience.
Step Two describes Fragomen's "Immigration Knowledge Library" as "a highly effective relaunch and restructuring of a collection of specialist legal knowledge on a law firm intranet, fuelled by new search capabilities, all delivered without the help of IT."
Intranets, digital workplaces and digital employee experience (DEX) continue to be critical, as they keep employees informed, facilitate task completion and increase accessibility while driving productivity, collaboration, enhanced client service and innovation.
