Mike Mallaro, CFO/CIO of The VGM Group, has won the Matt Parrott Integrity Award, an annual award given to community leaders for outstanding achievement in business, media, government and education/not-for-profit.
Established in 1995, the award “recognizes and acknowledges the relationship between business and integrity,” says the awards program sponsor, Matt Parrott and Sons Co., a printing business founded in 1868. Mallaro was nominated by VGM?s VP of Corporate Communications, Carolyn Cole.
