The Australian Startup Awards recognise and celebrate the best of the best talent in young entrepreneurship across Australia. Each finalist and winner of a Startup Award is a young entrepreneur who is paving the way for the future of the Australian business landscape, challenging and reinventing the way in which business is conducted. The 2014 Australian Startup Awards culminate on Saturday, 2nd August 2014, where over 350 entrepreneurs, media and BRW Young Rich List Members will come together to honour OrionVM, the other finalists, and of course, the winners.

OrionVM helps IT solution providers drive profit and deliver high-performing, enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure. OrionVM is Australia’s largest wholesale cloud IaaS provider and recently announced their US expansion in early 2014 with a new headquarters office in San Francisco, CA.

“We understand firsthand the tremendous pressure and drive for success that entrepreneurs feel. Resources like The Entourage provide the support that is hard to find in today’s business world,” said OrionVM Co-Founder and CEO Sheng Yeo. “We are honoured to be selected as a finalist in the Australian Startup Awards program. We strive to empower our employees and colleagues to achieve their goals, even when others are not willing to try or say it cannot be done. Sometimes those are the best opportunities to effect change.”

Sheng Yeo, OrionVM CEO, and Alex Sharp, OrionVM CTO, co-founded OrionVM while attending the University of Technology in Sydney, Australia. From their dorm room, they created the concept of building an IaaS company using a completely new technology blueprint. Since their idea’s inception in 2010, they have experienced rapid growth and currently service over 450 global clients, including government agencies, MSPs, and SaaS and PaaS vendors, with notable enterprise clients, including Fastly®, D-Link®, and Vodafone® while developing key technology partnerships with Cumulus NetworksTM and Mellanox. OrionVM also powers Australia’s third largest telco's (AAPT) public cloud platform. OrionVM is backed by tech luminaries Gordon Bell (Microsoft Research) and Steve Baxter (Pipe Networks).

OrionVM was also recognised as a merit recipient and national finalist in the Tools category of the 2014 iAwards, Australia’s premier technology innovation awards program for the ICT industry. OrionVM was also recently named as a Finalist in the New Product or Service of the Year category for Software - Cloud Infrastructure in the 2014 American Business Awards.
