This month we were honored to join the ranks of prominent past Red Herring 100 North America winners such as Yahoo!, Google, Skype, Salesforce.com and YouTube. This prestigious list honors the year’s most promising private technology firms in the North America region. “In 2013, 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 have crossed significant milestones so early. But after much thought, rigorous contemplation and discussion, we narrowed our finalists down from hundreds of candidates from across North America to the Top 100 Winners. We believe Ace Metrix embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. Ace Metrix should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was very strong.”

Red Herring’s editorial staff evaluated the companies on both quantitative and qualitative criteria, such as financial performance, technology innovation and intellectual property, management quality, business model, customer footprint, and market penetration. This assessment of potential is 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.

Our CEO, Peter Daboll, presented the Company’s winning strategy at the Red Herring North America Forum in Monterey, Calif., on May 23, 2013.
