Vibes, a mobile marketing leader, was named winner of the 'Lighthouse' award on Thursday at the Illinois Technology Association's (ITA (News - Alert)) 2018 CityLIGHTS Awards ceremony.

"Like previous 'Lighthouse' winners, we were founded on a passion to create and scale technology for real business outcomes. Chicago has become a hub for B2B technology, and receiving this award signals that Vibes is a leader in the space."
