MobileIron Named to Red Herring's Top 100 Americas List

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., July 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- MobileIron, the leader in security and management for mobile apps, content, and devices, today announced that it has been named to Red Herring's Top 100 Americas list. The Red Herring Top 100 Americas list recognizes the leading private companies and celebrates their innovations and technologies.

Red Herring's Top 100 Americas list has become a mark of distinction for identifying promising new companies and entrepreneurs. Red Herring editors were among the first to recognize that companies such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, Yahoo, Skype, Salesforce.com, YouTube, and eBay would change the way we live and work.

"Choosing the companies with the strongest potential was by no means a small feat," said Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring. "After rigorous contemplation and discussion, we narrowed our list down from hundreds of candidates from across North America to the Top 100 Winners. We believe MobileIron embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. MobileIron should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was very strong."

Red Herring's editorial staff evaluated the companies on both quantitative and qualitative criteria, such as financial performance, technology innovation, management quality, strategy, and market penetration. This assessment of potential is complemented by a review of the track record and standing of startups relative to their sector peers, allowing 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 Americas.
