We must be doing something right

Last year, NewsGator was honored by Lead411 as one of Colorado’s hottest technology companies. As a great testament to our success over the past year, NewsGator has made the list again for 2011, and we couldn’t be more proud.

For companies like ours, who are building innovative enterprise technology businesses outside of one of the usual US technology cities, winning this award is quite an honor. NewsGator is truly on a roll and it’s terrific that Lead411 has continued to keep an eye on us and our progress. For 10 years, Lead411 has been tracking fast-moving companies for their customers, and felt it was important to recognize these growing brands publicly. To be considered for this award, a company must be in the software, wireless, hardware, internet, or media industry, it must be a privately held organization, and it must be located within Colorado. From there, each company must meet one or more of the following requirements: 100% increase in revenues over the past two years, or $2M+ in funding in the past two years. So needless to say, NewsGator fits the bill.

This past spring has been very busy for NewsGator on the product front with major updates to our flagship platform, Social Sites 2010 and exciting new modules that help customers tailor the Microsoft SharePoint social experience to match their needs. And the customers keep coming. Even in what are generally seen to be tight economic times, Fortune 50 businesses are seeing the value in going social and are choosing NewsGator to make socializing SharePoint simple.

Our goal is to continue pushing the boundaries of Enterprise 2.0, and it is paying off; we are being recognized for our hard work and success, not only in Colorado but throughout the globe.
