Leading provider of data protection and disaster recovery
software is recognized
for growth and innovation in Europe
Woburn, MA- April 11, 2012, Acronis announced
today that it has been selected as a Finalist for Red Herring's Top
100 Europe award, a prestigious list honoring the year's most
promising private technology companies from the European business
region.
Finalists for the 2012 edition of the Red Herring 100 Europe
award are selected by the Red Herring editorial team based upon
their technological innovation, management strength, market size,
investor record, customer acquisition, and financial health.
Hundreds of companies in the telecommunications, security, Web 2.0,
software, hardware, biotech, mobile and other industries were
nominated for the award.
This comprehensive assessment of potential is complemented by a
review of the actual track record and standing of a company, which
allows Red Herring to see past the "buzz" and make the list a
valuable instrument for discovering and advocating the greatest
business opportunities in the industry.
"This year was very rewarding," said Alex Vieux, publisher and
CEO of Red Herring. "The global economic situation has abated and
there are many great companies producing really innovative and
amazing products. We had a very difficult time narrowing the pool
and selecting the finalists. Acronis GmbH shows great promise
therefore deserves to be among the Finalists. Now we're faced with
the difficult task of selecting the Top 100 winners of Red Herring
Europe. We know that the 2012 crop will grow into some amazing
companies that are sure to make an impact."
"Acronis is an established company with ten years of software
innovation and growth in a highly competitive market," commented
Alex Pinchev, President and CEO at Acronis. "I am very proud that
we continue to be recognized as a leader for the next generation of
data protection technology amongst some of the most innovative
companies in Europe."
The Finalists are invited to present their winning strategies at
the Red Herring Europe Forum in Amsterdam, April 23-25, 2012. Alex
Pinchev is presenting for Acronis during the afternoon of April 25;
the Top 100 winners will be announced at a special awards ceremony
later that day.
