Monaca Selected as 2014 Red Herring Top 100 Global Winner


SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Nov 24, 2014) - Monaca, the HTML5 hybrid app development platform, is honored to announce it has been chosen as a winner of Red Herring's Top 100 Global award. After being designated a winner of the Red Herring Asia Top 100 in August of this year, Monaca has now become a Red Herring Top 100 Global winner. The award recognizes the leading private companies from North America, Europe, and Asia, celebrating these startups' innovations and technologies across their respective industries.

Red Herring's Top 100 Global list is a mark of distinction for 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 the globe to the Top 100 Winners. We believe Monaca embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. Monaca should be proud of its accomplishment."

Red Herring's editorial staff evaluated 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 records and standing of startups relative to their 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 from around the world.
