FIS was recognized as a Bronze winner in the American Business Awards, within the category of companies with 2,500 or more employees.

"Empowering the financial world requires us to continually disrupt the way we do business – reinventing ourselves to meet the rapidly changing needs and expectations of our clients and their customers," said Gary Norcross, FIS president and CEO. "I'm incredibly proud of the work our employees do every day to drive innovation that delivers true value to our clients and transforms the customer experience."

Innovation is at the forefront of everything FIS does – from its think tank, Bold Rocket, which creates innovative solutions for future business developments to its continual investments in early-stage companies and products and services to its security solutions that address risks at their earliest stages.

The American Business Awards are the nation's premier business awards program. All organizations operating in the United States are eligible to submit nominations – public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small.

Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word meaning "crowned," the awards were presented to winners during a gala banquet on June 22 in Chicago.
