The Red Herring editorial team selected the most innovative companies from a pool of 1,200 companies – the Finalists from its Red Herring Asia, Europe and North America Awards. 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 was complemented by a review of the actual track record and standing of each company, which enabled Red Herring to see past the "buzz" and make the list an important instrument for discovering and advocating the greatest business opportunities in the industry.

"2010 was very difficult but extremely rewarding," said Alex Vieux, Publisher and CEO of Red Herring.  "Despite lingering effects of the global economic situation, there are many great companies producing truly innovative and amazing technologies, to the extent that we had a hard time narrowing the pool and selecting the finalists. AutoVirt shows great promise and therefore deserves to be among the Finalists. Now we're faced with the difficult task of selecting the Winners of the Top 100 Global Award."

"This has been an incredible year for AutoVirt, marked by unsurpassed advancements in our file data virtualization, tiering and migration software, acquisition of world-class brand-name customers across virtually every industry vertical, as well as numerous awards – including Red Herrings Top 100 North America Award," said Josh Klein, President and CEO of AutoVirt.  "We are sincerely honored to have now been selected as a Finalist for the Red Herring Top 100 Global Award.  It is a truly prestigious award, known worldwide as designating those companies that have both a comprehensive vision, as well as a demonstrated ability to execute on it."  He continued, "We wish our distinguished fellow Finalists congratulations and best of luck."

The Finalists have been invited to present their winning strategies at the Red Herring Global forum in Los Angeles, January 24-26, 2011. The Top 100 winners will be announced at a special awards ceremony on January 26 at the event.
