Stockholm, Sweden – June 3, 2010. Red Herring has selected Accumulate as winner of the Red Herring 100 Europe 2010, awarded to 100 private technology companies in EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa).
“This year was especially difficult,” said Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring. “Despite the global economic situation, there were so many great companies producing really innovative and amazing products that we had a difficult time narrowing the pool and selecting the finalists. Accumulate shows great promise therefore deserves to be a Red Herring 100 winner. We know that this year’s crop will grow into some amazing companies that are sure to go far.”
