[http://www.herring100.com/RHE/2011/finalists.html ] for Red Herring's Top 100 Europe
award, a prestigious list honoring the year's most promising private technology ventures
from the European business region.
The Red Herring editorial team selected the most innovative companies from a pool of
hundreds from across Europe. The nominees were evaluated on both quantitative and
qualitative criteria, such as financial performance, technology innovation, quality of
management, execution of strategy, and integration into their respective industries.
This unique assessment of potential is complemented by a review of the actual track
record and standing of a company, which allows Red Herring to see past the "buzz" and make
the list a valuable instrument for discovering and advocating the greatest business
opportunities in the industry.
"This year was very rewarding," said Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring.
"The global economic situation has abated and there are many great companies producing
really innovative and amazing products. We had a very difficult time narrowing the pool
and selecting the finalists. Capablue shows great promise therefore deserves to be among
the Finalists. Now we're faced with the difficult task of selecting the Top 100 winners of
Red Herring Europe. We know that the 2012 crop will grow into some amazing companies that
are sure to make an impact."
"It is great to be selected for the second year running as a finalist in Red Herring's
Top 100 Europe award," said Tom Cape, CEO Capablue. "The Red Herring awards celebrate
companies' unique innovations and performance over the past year and it's great to see
that we have been recognised for our hard work and technological contributions to the
Connected TV landscape."
Finalists [http://www.herring100.com/RHE/2011/finalists.html ] for the 2012 edition of
the Red Herring 100 Europe award were selected based upon their technological innovation,
management strength, market size, investor record, customer acquisition, and financial
health. During the several months leading up to the announcement, hundreds of companies in
the telecommunications, security, Web 2.0, software, hardware, biotech, mobile and other
industries completed their submissions to qualify for the award.
