The Red Herring Top 100 America lists outstanding entrepreneurs and promising companies. Red Herring selects 100 award winners from among the approximately 3,000 tech startups financed each year in the U.S. and Canada. Since 1996, Red Herring has kept tabs on these up-and-comers. Red Herring editors were among the first to recognize that companies such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, Yahoo, Skype, Salesforce.com, YouTube, Marin Software, Palo Alto Networks and eBay would change the way we live and work.
"In 2014, selecting the top 100 achievers was by no means a small feat," said Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring. "In fact, we had the toughest time in years because so many entrepreneurs had crossed significant milestones so early. But after much thought, rigorous contemplation and discussion, we narrowed our list down from hundreds of candidates from across North America to the top 100 winners. We believe Norse Corp. embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. Norse Corp. should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was very strong."
"To be chosen by Red Herring out of thousands of other organizations as a top 100 company exemplifies the achievements of Norse over the last year," stated Sam Glines, Norse CEO and co-founder. "Our team works incredibly hard to deliver powerful and innovative solutions for our customers. I'm looking forward to seeing Norse reach the goals we've set for this year."
"Norse is dedicated to providing the most useful and actionable live threat intelligence to our customers, and it is an honor to be recognized for our successes in this area," added Norse CTO and co-founder Tommy Stiansen.
Red Herring's editorial staff evaluated companies on both quantitative and qualitative criteria, such as financial performance, technological innovation and intellectual property, management quality, business model, customer footprint and market penetration. This assessment of potential was complemented by a review of the track record and standing of startups relative to their sector 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 in North America.
