Award Recognizes the 100 'Most Promising' Companies Driving the Future of
Technology
SAN FRANCISCO, May 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Red Herring today announced that
NorthStar, the leading provider of wealth management software to financial
services institutions, is a recipient of Red Herring 100 Spring, an award
given to the top 100 private technology companies based in North America.
"Having received more than 800 submissions, it is clear that we are
witnessing a new outburst of creativity," says Joel Dreyfuss,
Editor-in-Chief of Red Herring. "With venture capital flowing again, it's
exciting to see technology innovators and business investors collaborate to
create disruptive technologies. The Red Herring 100 North America companies
are impressive up-and-comers, and definitely the ones to watch."
Red Herring's annual lists of top private companies are an important
part of the company's tradition of identifying new and innovative
technology companies and entrepreneurs. Companies like Google, eBay and
Skype were spotted in their early days by Red Herring editors, and touted
as leaders that would change the way we live and work.
"Being selected to the Red Herring 100 is a great honor and is also
additional proof of our leadership in the wealth management software
industry," said Bob Zangrillo, chairman and CEO of NorthStar. "NorthStar is
empowering banks, broker-dealers, and asset managers to transform their
business models to support an open architecture offering. By employing a
best practice wealth management desktop solution, our clients are achieving
significant revenue improvements, cost reductions and compliance with our
industry-leading Solutions."
Red Herring's editorial staff rigorously evaluated more than 800
private companies through a careful analysis of financial data and
subjective criteria, including quality of management, execution of
strategy, and dedication to research and development.
To honor the CEOs of Red Herring 100 Spring companies, Red Herring has
invited each one to present his or her company at its Red Herring Spring
2007 event, May 1-3, at the Hyatt Regency in Monterey. As the venue for the
unveiling of the Top 100 private companies in North America, Red Herring
Spring draws unparalleled attention from decision makers and industry
observers across the continent. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the
Red Herring 100 Awards. To celebrate this occasion, Red Herring 100 winners
will share their successes and insights on how to make it to the top.
