Tony Perkins, AlwaysOn editor, and KPMG 1Start, identified the AO100 companies based on their innovation and demonstrated leadership among their peers in at least two areas: market traction measured by revenue or customer growth and game-changing approaches and technologies that are likely to disrupt existing markets and entrenched players.
“Our survey proves that private company innovation is alive and thriving,” said Perkins. “We believe that many of the companies funded in the last twelve months will end up being some of the biggest names associated with the Internet. To raise money and win customers in this market, private companies must show that their products and services are an order of magnitude above what currently exists in the marketplace.”
"Being honored as one of the top technology companies in the marketplace validates our market leadership,” said John Hubinger, AmberPoint CEO. "AmberPoint has developed an enterprise-class system for managing Web services that has been widely embraced by an impressive collection of customers and partners. We are proud to be recognized by AlwaysOn for our successes and our commitment to innovation.”
