At Inflexion Interactive, we’re all about greatness. And when greatness is being recognized in our own backyard, we have to give it a shoutout!
Every year, NJBiz, the local source for all things business, hosts an awards program called Healthcare Heroes, recognizing those making a difference in the New Jersey healthcare community. As a Hoboken-based web design agency and healthcare marketers, we too wanted the chance to highlight the organizations and individuals who work every day to keep New Jersey healthy. It’s not an easy job and we want to thank all the honorees and everyone else in the industry for all they do.
Below is the full list of the 2015 honorees. Click here for the 2015 winners.
