Lenovo's 20th Anniversary of Globalization Employee Celebration
An Unforgettable Evening at the Durham Bulls Game | Sponsored by Intel
Lenovo is proud to celebrate 20 years of globalization and calling North Carolina home. This special milestone is an opportunity to honor those who have been instrumental in our success–our employees! The dedication, innovation, and contributions from our North American workforce have helped shape the Triangle area and elevate Lenovo’s global journey.
To show our gratitude, please join us for an exciting evening at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park. We will come together as a community to enjoy baseball, great food, and a Lenovo-themed fireworks show to cap off the night.
We appreciate everything you do to make Lenovo a technology trailblazer, and we look forward to celebrating with you.
