Rotman School of Management awarded “Site of the Year” in the education sector

April 24, 2013

TORONTO, ON – The Uni­ver­si­ty of Toronto’s Rot­man School of Man­age­ment has been award­ed a Sitecore Site of the Year award for its new­ly revamped web pres­ence.

“Our new web­site reflects the design-focused think­ing and com­mit­ment to inno­va­tion that has made Rot­man one of the world’s best busi­ness schools for years,” said Pym Buiten­huis, Direc­tor of Mar­ket­ing. “We are thrilled with the site and hon­oured that Sitecore chose to rec­og­nize us this way.”

The site was the result of a “true part­ner­ship” between Rot­man and its agency part­ner, Non­lin­ear Dig­i­tal, a divi­sion of non-lin­ear cre­ations.

“Non­lin­ear was instru­men­tal in us get­ting to where we are today,” Buiten­huis con­tin­ued. “From help­ing us map our over­all objec­tives right through to exe­cut­ing on the site build and set­ting us up for ongo­ing suc­cess, this has been a tremen­dous part­ner­ship.”

“Rot­man is one of our most val­ued part­ners,” said Non­lin­ear Dig­i­tal Pres­i­dent Alli­son Simp­kins. “The team there chal­lenged us to help them build a site that reflects the school’s unique iden­ti­ty and focus on inno­va­tion in a way that dri­ves real busi­ness val­ue. I think we’ve suc­ceed­ed in a big way.”

This is Nonlinear’s fourth Sitecore Site of the Year award.
