Do you have an idea?

On today’s Up To Speed Live, Nicki Palmer launched the Build the Future Challenge:

Starting today and running through May 22, employees can submit ideas for new technology solutions that will help individuals and businesses adapt during and after the pandemic. After the top ten ideas are identified, those employees will have an opportunity to pitch them to senior leadership. Learn more on VZWeb or here for Verizon Media.

Also today on Up To Speed Live:
