SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwired - Jun 3, 2013) - Zetta.net today announced it has been named a winner of the Red Herring 2013 Top 100 North America award, which recognizes the most promising privately held companies in North America for the innovations, technologies and business models they are utilizing to become leaders in their respective industries.

Red Herring 100 Awards are widely recognized as one of the industry's more prestigious recognitions, with up to 1,400 candidates from each continent competing each year. The awards honor the region's top entrepreneurs and innovative private companies that are anticipated to experience extensive rapid growth based on their current accomplishments to date.

"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 list down from hundreds of candidates from across North America to the Top 100 Winners. We believe Zetta.net embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. Zetta.net should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was very strong."

Selected from a pool of submissions from across the region, the Top 100 highlight the most innovative, disruptive and fastest growing companies. Selections are based on both quantitative and qualitative criteria, such as financial performance, innovation, quality of management, IP creation, CAGR, execution of strategy, and disruption in their respective industries.
