Follow up from December post.
Dear Colleague,It is an honor to make contact with Business of Software again. In December, I last contacted you and this time is the last notice I can send for this year. All that is asked for is for your company to make a submission by the final Feb 20th deadline. Previous winners includehousehold names such as Facebook, Google, Yahoo, Skype, eBay, Salesforce, Baidu, Rakuten, Renren and Zynga so the process does require serious discussion and thought among your upper management, marketing team and the CEO.The Red Herring is initiating the roll-out for our annual 2015 Top 100 Europe forum in Amsterdam to be held on April 13-15 2015. This year, we are seeking out the most exciting companies from Europe. Minimum criteria are as follows to first be eligible to proceed further: private company, technology or innovative business, not a previous winner (after 2011), HQ based in Europe or Israel/Russia, and finally the online submission must be completed by the deadline unless we arrange otherwise. Early stage to late stage innovative companies are suggested to first apply before we make any decision on whether the company can be a Finalist.
