“At Geonetric, we’ve built a workplace culture that empowers employees to make decisions and promotes their well-being at every opportunity.

The Prometheus Awards recognizes the outstanding accomplishments of high-tech businesses and individuals across the state. The Best Technology Company Culture was a new category for 2019, and to apply Geonetric had to demonstrate that it has designed a workspace that encourages creativity and collaboration, ensures open and honest communication, uses its unique culture to recruit and retain top talent, and is committed to inclusion.
