Mid-Market/Enterprise Award

David Marcelino

CIO
Mazars Spain

David Marcelino has a track record of transforming IT services for global businesses. In 2019, he joined Mazars in Spain, a leading international audit, tax and advisory firm. At the time, the company struggled with productivity, client collaboration, and talent acquisition. Then he deployed Dropbox as the company's first public cloud platform. Thanks to David, Mazars could successfully shift to remote work during the pandemic. "Our users benefit from a simple and secure way of collaborating," David said.

Social Good Award

Colette Ghunim

Documentary Filmmaker and Co-Founder/Executive Director
Mezcla Media Collective

Colette Ghunim is a filmmaker working to build access and equity for other femme filmmakers of color. Colette cofounded the Mezcla Media Collective, a Chicago-based nonprofit that provides resources for nearly 700 female and non-binary filmmakers of color to advance their careers. Dropbox is Colette’s go-to platform for her own work—and for her organization. Many filmmakers supported by Mezcla use Dropbox for their storage needs as well.

Dropbox has been critical for our work to have the ability to seamlessly transfer, store and share large creative files through an organized platform that also is trusted by our friends in the creative industries.
