Colubris Networks, a leading provider of intelligent, multiservice wireless LAN (WLAN) systems, today announced that it has been chosen by AlwaysOn (AO) as one of the Top 100 Private Company award winners in North America. Colubris was handpicked by the AlwaysOn editorial team based on a set of five criteria -- innovation, market potential, customer adoption, media buzz and investor value creation.
The AO 100 was selected from over 1,000 companies, peer-nominated by leading venture capitalists, investment bankers and industry analysts. The AO 100 consists of private companies at all stages of development, from early to late stage.
"The AO 100 companies are shaping today's web-driven, connected environment," said Tony Perkins, founder and editor, AlwaysOn. "We were inundated with nominations from leading companies, many of which I hope will appear on our list next year. My congratulations to each AO 100 winner -- these are the companies which we predict will have the greatest market traction, strongest innovation and most game-changing approaches this year."
Recently, Colubris unveiled a strategy to unify wireless and wired network infrastructures and a new family of InMotion MultiService Controllers. Developed for enterprises and service provider networks, Colubris' Unified Services Network (USN) architecture enables the delivery of multiple services over a single wireless/wired infrastructure, offering greater security, scalability, performance, quality of service (QoS) and cost effectiveness.
"Being selected an AlwaysOn Top 100 Company further underscores Colubris' strategy in driving the next generation of WLAN technology and services," said Barry Fougere, president and CEO, Colubris Networks. "We are honored to be recognized by the industry for enabling the cost-effective, scalable and secure delivery of business applications -- like voice over WLAN (VoWLAN) -- that are creating tremendous opportunities for our enterprise and service provider customers."
The AO 100 will be honored at the AO2005: Innovation Summit at a VIP reception at 5.00pm on July 19, 2005 at the Frances C. Arrillaga Alumni Center on the Stanford University campus in Palo Alto, California.
