Indianapolis, IN (PRWEB) June 05, 2015 -- CloudOne (http://www.oncloudone.com), a leader in bringing enterprise applications to the cloud, announced today it has been named a Red Herring Top 100 North America award winner. The award recognizes leading private companies from the region and celebrates startups’ innovations and technologies across their respective industries.
Red Herring Top 100 North America enlists outstanding entrepreneurs and promising companies. It selects the award winners from approximately 1,200 privately financed companies each year in the US and Canada. Since 1996, Red Herring has kept tabs on these up-and-comers. Red Herring editors were among the first to recognize that companies such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, Yahoo, Skype, Salesforce.com, YouTube, Palo Alto Networks and eBay would change the way we live and work.
“I was privileged to accept the Red Herring Top 100 North America award on behalf of all the smart, passionate and dedicated professionals at CloudOne. The innovation and level of leadership among the finalists was inspiring and therefore being chosen as a winner for our work helping enterprises leverage the Internet of Things is truly an honor,” said John McDonald, chief executive officer of CloudOne.
Red Herring’s editorial staff evaluated companies on both quantitative and qualitative criteria, such as financial performance, technological innovation and intellectual property, DNA of the founders, business model, customer footprint and addressable market. A review of the track record and standing of startups relative to their sector peers, allowed Red Herring to see past the “buzz” and make the list a valuable instrument of discovery and advocacy for the most promising new business models in North America, complement this assessment of potential.
“In 2015, selecting the top achievers was by no means a small feat,” said Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring. “In fact, we had the toughest time in years because so many entrepreneurs had crossed significant milestones so early. But after much thought, rigorous contemplation and discussion, we narrowed our list down from hundreds of candidates from across North America to the North America winners. We believe CloudOne embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. CloudOne should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was very strong.”
