Patty Patria, chief information officer at Babson College, was recognized as a finalist in the Corporate technology space at the 2023 Boston ORBIE Awards, the premier technology executive recognition program.

Patria was celebrated by her peers during a 400-person breakfast May 5 at the Westin Copley Place ballroom. The annual ORBIE Awards program honors chief information officers and chief information security officers who have demonstrated excellence in technology leadership.
