Celebrating recognition at Relocate and Think Global People Awards

10 Jun 2024 | Icon news

We had a wonderful evening at the prestigious Relocate and Think Global People Awards ceremony, hosted this year at Two Temple Place in London to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the magazine. From Icon, Simon Johnston (CEO) and Catrina Kemp (Marketing Executive) attended the event.

Icon was shortlisted for two separate categories: Excellence in Technology or Analytics, and Excellence in ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance). This year, these were two of the most popular categories, reflecting the significant changes in recent conversations in the global mobility industry, with increasing focus on the issues of technology and corporate responsibility in relocation. We were delighted to receive Highly Commended status in the Excellence in Technology or Analytics category for our assignee relocation app, Cosee. Of Cosee, the judges commented: “Icon’s AI powered Cosee tool is clearly a game-changer in terms of easy access to information. With a great look and feel, this iconic tool is going to be of great value to assignees particularly where there is no home search service provided.”

Cosee allows assignees to receive housing market data, guides on relocation processes, area information, property listings and much more all in one place, allowing them to make the most informed decisions about their move. Uniquely, Cosee offers a lower-budget standalone solution as well as an enhancement to our existing home search services.

Innovation is one of our core values, and everyone at Icon is thrilled to have our dedication to advancing technology in the global mobility sector recognised at such a renowned event. We look forward to continuing to develop solutions that set new standards in the industry and to future events.

 

If you would like to find out more about Cosee and how it could help your assignees, contact us and we’d be delighted to arrange a demo.
