Global Innovation Events

Our employees innovate every day, and especially love coming together for key global innovation events. They play an important role in our innovation journey and all employees are encouraged to join in and contribute to the innovation roadmap of Wolters Kluwer. With multiple innovation programs at every level, a spirit of collaboration and community thrives at Wolters Kluwer, and shines a light on our primary differentiator: our innovative people. We encourage idea generation through our annual Global Innovation Awards (GIA) and Code Games.

Code Games

Code Games is a fun and intense three-day software development competition for employees worldwide that welcomes cross-functional collaboration across divisions. This event is a key part of our innovation journey, encouraging creativity and collaboration among our employees. Participants build working software prototypes to explore early-stage ideas, contributing to the company's culture of continuous innovation. Non-technologists can also participate as a part of a team, a consultant, on-site event coordinator, judging panel host, or event judge. By participating in Code Games, our employees play a crucial role in driving the technological advancements that keep Wolters Kluwer at the forefront of the industry.
Global Innovation Awards
Introduced in 2011, Global Innovation Awards (GIA) is Wolters Kluwer's largest innovation showcase. With over 1,700 participants participating across 25 countries, the initiative recognizes and celebrates the ingenuity and creativity of our employees. The program also provides a collaborative and inclusive environment where employees from different divisions and functions come together to develop innovative solutions and plays a vital role in driving our company’s growth and building competitive strength.
