This is the second year in a row Q4 has been honored in the International Business Awards.
Considered “the Olympics for the workplace,” the International Business Awards (IBAs) are the world’s premier business awards program. All individuals and organizations worldwide – public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small — are eligible to submit nominations. The 2024 IBAs received entries from organizations in 62 nations and territories, with more than 3,600 nominations submitted.
Here’s what the judges had to say about Q4’s WCS team:
- “Their achievements reflect exceptional efficiency, accuracy, and client satisfaction.”
- “The team’s ability to handle client requests efficiently, maintain high accuracy, and achieve record CSAT scores highlights their effectiveness in supporting client needs.”
- “Q4’s core company values shine through in the way this team operates.”
- Q4’s WCS team shows “exceptional performance in customer service through impressive metrics, continuous improvement, and a commitment to customer satisfaction.”
- “The WCS team at Q4 has demonstrated outstanding performance.”
“IROs and their teams have a lot on their plates, and we want to alleviate that burden through our AI-driven IR Ops Platform,” said Darrell Heaps, Founder and CEO of Q4. “This recognition from the International Business Awards shows how our amazing Web Content Services team does just that. It also highlights the high-impact results our customers achieve — using Q4 to build investor relationships and make strategic decisions. As we continue to chart a bold, new path for investor relations, we’re committed to innovation that helps IR teams realize remarkable outcomes and frees up their time to focus on what matters: strategy, relationships, and driving premium valuations for their companies.”
Q4: A single, powerful platform for investor relations
Public companies today strive to maintain up-to-date, secure and compliant investor relations websites — so they can demonstrate what they do, attract investors, and motivate them to take action. Q4’s technology makes it easy for some of the world’s biggest brands — McDonald’s, Walmart, Visa, Netflix and many more — to create and manage IR websites that drive results, accelerate website updates (publishing changes within minutes, and 16 times faster than with other tools), streamline earnings management, and tap into real-time analytics on investor behavior. With decades of website design and IR experience, Q4’s award-winning WCS team provides further assistance with website development and change requests, as well as Q4 Platform support.
Websites are just one component of Q4’s holistic IR Ops Platform, an unprecedented and unified system for attracting investors, managing relationships and staying abreast of the market’s pulse. Rather than grapple with disparate and disconnected tools, IR leaders and their companies can access everything they need from a single place: using Q4 for IR websites, virtual events, an IR CRM, surveillance, engagement analytics and more, including secure AI for IR.
Q4’s win in the International Business Awards comes on the heels of other recent milestones and momentum for the company. Q4 has powered more than 18 million investor interactions and hosts 4,400 events annually — with 530,000+ investors connecting to events via the Q4 Platform each month. Named “Best Tech-Driven Capital Markets Platform” by Global Brands Magazine, Q4 serves more than 2,600 global clients, including half of the S&P 500.

Ant International, a leading global payment, digitisation, and financial technology provider, is collaborating on the launch of Google’s Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP), a new open standard for agentic commerce that works across the entire shopping journey — from discovery and buying to post-purchase support. UCP establishes a common language for agents and systems to operate together across consumer surfaces, businesses, and payment providers to enable commerce. So instead of requiring unique connections for every individual agent, UCP enables all agents to interact easily. UCP is built to work across verticals and is compatible with existing industry protocols like Agent2Agent (A2A), Agent Payments Protocol (AP2), and Model Context Protocol (MCP). “For agentic commerce to scale, it’s critical for the industry to align on a common set of standards.
