Meru Networks Wins 'Red Herring 100 Global' Award
SUNNYVALE, Calif. --(Business Wire)-- Meru Networks has been named as a winner of the Red Herring 100 Global Award, joining the ranks of past winners Google, Skype and YouTube on the magazine's annual list of the world's top 100 technology startups.
According to the Red Herring web site, the magazine's editorial team surveyed entrepreneurship in thousands of privately-held companies around the globe to arrive at the Red Herring 100, a list regarded by executives, investors and observers as "an invaluable instrument to discover and advocate the promising startups that will lead the next wave of disruption and innovation." Candidates were evaluated on criteria ranging from financial performance, innovation and management to global strategy and ecosystem integration.
"It is a true honor to be recognized by Red Herring as one of the top global startups," said Ihab Abu-Hakima, Meru CEO. "Our commitment to wireless innovation and excellence is reflected in a wide variety of offerings, including the market's first enterprise-grade 802.11n wireless LAN products."
Meru's award-winning Air Traffic Control(TM) technology provides the performance, reliability and security that are critical in the most demanding wireless environments. Unlike the "micro cell" approach of legacy wireless LAN designs - which assign different channels to adjacent cells of the network - Meru's unique "virtual cell" approach automatically selects a single channel for use enterprise-wide, maximizing network performance and quality of service while accelerating and simplifying deployments. With this zero-handoff technology, mobile devices need not switch channels when roaming, so users and applications have a guaranteed, uninterrupted connection.
