PolicyMap Wins Gold Stevie Award for Web Programming/Design

Philadelphia, PA – 10/15/14 – PolicyMap was named the winner of a Gold Stevie® Award in the Best Web Software Programming/Design category in The 11th Annual International Business Awards today.

More than 3,500 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year for consideration in a wide range of categories, including Company of the Year, Website of the Year, Best New Product or Service of the Year, Corporate Social Responsibility Program of the Year, and Executive of the Year, among others. PolicyMap won in the Best Web Software Programming/Design category.

Its first major redesign effort since launching in 2008, PolicyMap is now faster and easier to use, making community and market data more accessible and visually compelling through maps, tables, reports and analytic tools. PolicyMap is a division of The Reinvestment Fund (TRF), a nonprofit leader in the financing of neighborhood revitalization since 1985.
