When you work for a company, you know that its product is the hottest thing on the market, right?  And you can talk for hours about what it does and how innovative it is because let’s face it – it is.  But to be recognized by a third party for being the best in the business is another story.  Industry awards, and especially mainstream awards, can lend tremendous credibility to a company and its products, not to mention takes the company’s visibility up a notch.

Something we regularly do for our clients is to manage their awards program.  And 2009 has been a strong year for our clients.  Two of our clients, Serious Materials and Verayo, were honored in September with the prestigious Wall Street Journal Technology Innovation Awards. These companies were chosen from among nearly 500 applications and were recognized for their promising technology and innovative contributions to the overall industry.

And today, we are proud to acknowledge that our clients, Dilithium Networks and Serious Materials, were two of the 26 companies  named 2010 Technology Pioneers by the World Economic Forum (WEF).  The WEF is the prestigious group that puts on the Davos conference which is attended by global leaders (including President Obama) every year.  Its Technology Pioneers are nominated by the world’s leading technology experts for having a deep impact on business and society.  Each winner is now featured on the WEF blog along with video interviews from the winning CEOs.  Take a look and see what makes these companies unique – and how their technology might just have an impact on your day-to-day life.  We congratulate our clients today as they join the ranks of previous WEF award winners including Google, Red Hat, Paypal and Sandisk.
