The award was voted on during the Vonage Spring Hack, a hackathon event organized by the Vonage Developer Relations Team, focused on technology, communication, innovation, customer experience and developer experience. The People's Choice Award was for the favorite project that the Vonage team had worked on, with IU that was enabling any contact center with automated real-time voice interpretation.
