TSIA Honors Gigamon with Inaugural 2023 DEI STAR Award

Gigamon recognized for innovation and excellence for its global DEI program

Santa Clara, Calif. - Oct. 31, 2023 — Gigamon, the leading deep observability company, announced that Technology & Services Industry Association® (TSIA), the leading research and advisory firm for technology service organizations, has awarded Gigamon with the inaugural 2023 Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) STAR Award, in recognition of the company’s global commitment to DEI.

Selected by an advisory board of industry experts, the STAR Awards are one of the highest honors in the technology and services industry. For more than 30 years these awards have recognized innovative work by companies from across the technology industry. This year, TSIA added a new category: Best Practices in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, recognizing that even in technology, people are the most important variable in business.

In 2020, Gigamon focused on DEI programs as part of the company’s overall mission to re-establish meaningful connections among employees post-pandemic. It included enhancing hiring and recruitment practices and emphasizing its One Gigamon workplace culture, and community. Over the past year, the company has established career paths for early in career roles, promoted growth tracks across multiple job functions, and modified hiring requirements to be more inclusive.

“We have a rich ‘One Gigamon’ culture and wanted to ensure that we were bringing the best DEI practices into our culture for our employees, partners, and customers,” said Nathan Odell, director of L&OD and DEI at Gigamon. “Working across the globe, we’ve put into practice a host of programs – from inclusive language initiatives to employee resource groups like GigaWomen to socioeconomic-free biases in hiring and promotions. We’re fully committed to providing a diverse and inclusive workplace where our employees and extended community are empowered to achieve their full potential.”

“Every year, the STAR Awards advisory board of industry experts evaluates technology companies demonstrating real-world excellence and innovation to provide the best value for their customers and lead the industry forward. The best of those companies are recognized with the TSIA STAR Awards,” said JB Wood, president and CEO of TSIA. “Congratulations to Gigamon for your recognition as a 2023 STAR Award recipient.”
