TechPoint, the growth initiative for Indiana's technology ecosystem, produces the Mira Awards each year to honor the most innovative and successful technologies and technology companies in Indiana, as well as entrepreneurs and educators. Winners were announced during the annual Mira Awards gala at The Westin Indianapolis on April 29, 2017.
One Click applied for the TechPoint Mira Award for the 'Company Culture of the Year' category because One Click is a place that not only values their customers, but the amazing team members that call One Click home. As a company that truly values their culture and also being recognized previously by INC and Entrepreneur for their culture, One Click only seeks to inform their community and beyond of all they have to offer.

The ownership of our culture shows daily in the way we care about our mission, values, customers, community, and each other," Randy Stocklin, CEO and Co-Founder of One Click said.
A total of 15 award winners and three honorable mentions were chosen from the 90 outstanding companies, organizations, and individuals who were selected as nominees this year out of the 180 applications received highlighting achievements during the 2016 calendar year.
Fifty independent, volunteer judges spent more than 800 total hours reviewing and ranking applications, interviewing nominees, and selecting this year's winners. Judges included company founders, CEOs and presidents, CTOs, CIOs, software developers, and a variety of other entrepreneurs and subject matter experts.
The Mira Awards—Indiana's longest running technology awards program—amplify success stories of some of the very best Indiana startups, scale-ups, and established tech companies, which helps them win new customers, attract investment capital, and acquire skilled talent. The Mira Awards are a large, annual part of TechPoint's mission to accelerate tech growth in Indiana.
"In just over a decade, Indiana has seen more than $6.5 billion in acquisitions and IPOs from our tech community. More recently, in 2016, two-thirds of all the venture capital dollars and three-quarters of all the deals raised in Indiana went to tech companies," said TechPoint President and CEO Mike Langellier.
