November 27, 2013, — Delivering the future of analytics, Pentaho announced today that it has been named a winner of the 2013 Red Herring Top 100 Global award, honoring the leading private technology companies from across the globe.

“We are honored to be a winner of this year’s Red Herring 100 Global Award.

Red Herring’s Top 100 Global list has become a mark of distinction for identifying promising new companies and entrepreneurs. Red Herring editors were among the first to recognize that companies such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, Yahoo, Skype, Salesforce.com, YouTube, and eBay would change the way we live and work.

“Choosing the companies with the strongest potential was by no means a small feat,” said Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring. “After rigorous contemplation and discussion, we narrowed our list down from hundreds of candidates from across the globe to the Top 100 Winners. We believe Pentaho embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. Pentaho should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was the strongest it has ever been.”

The Global 100 award is given to the top 100 global technology companies based on their technological innovation, management strength, market size, investor record, customer acquisition, and financial health.
