EDEN PRAIRIE, MINNESOTA – Starkey announced that it has been named Organization of the Year in the 2024 Excellence in Customer Service Awards. This global recognition, presented by the Business Intelligence Group, recognizes organizations who provide a differentiated level of customer service and an unwavering commitment to continuous improvement of the customer experience.
“Starkey’s mission is to serve our customers better than anyone else, but there’s a much deeper meaning to that seemingly simple statement. Our customers are our partners in helping people around the world hear better, so they can live better lives. Starkey’s ground-breaking hearing technology may provide the best sound experience on the market, but without our partners, it wouldn’t reach the ears of patients who need it most. We are grateful for our partners and thank them for continuing to put their trust in Starkey.”
