The Technology
Association of Georgia (TAG), the state’s leading association dedicated to the
promotion and economic advancement of Georgia’s technology industry, today
announced NanoLumens as one of its Top 10 Innovative Technology Companies in
Georgia. It is the second time in four
years that NanoLumens has been cited by TAG for its ground-breaking LED display
technolgy. TAG will recognize this
prestigious group at the 2013 Georgia Technology Summit (GTS) on March 20,
2013, at the Cobb Galleria Centre in Atlanta.
The “Top 10” most
innovative technology companies are chosen from among TAG’s “Top 40” 2013 list
and were chosen based on a number of criteria, including degree of innovation,
scope and financial impact of innovation, likelihood of success, and promotion
of Georgia’s innovative efforts nationally and internationally.
“The 2013 Top 10
finalists are an elite group of innovators who represent the very best from
Georgia’s technology community,” said Tino Mantella, President & CEO of
TAG. “These finalists are shining
examples of what makes our state such a hotbed for technology and we applaud
them for standing out as leaders in Georgia’s technology community.”
This year’s Top
10 companies were selected from among over 90 applications submitted by
companies from across Georgia. Each
company selected to be in the Top 10 will be given the opportunity to present
at the annual Georgia Technology Summit before a crowd of more than 1,000 of
the state’s technology leaders.
“Our ninth year
of the Top 40/Top 10 was an overwhelming success, based on the number of truly
innovative companies that participated in the competition,” said Dennis Zakas,
a partner and founder of Zakas & Leonard, LLP, Chair of Group Office Buys,
LLC, and the chairperson of the Top 40/Top 10 Selection Committee. “The Top 40 winners demonstrate the depth and
breadth of Georgia’s technology community.”
“We are honored
to be named a Top 10 finalist for the second time in four years,” said Rick
Cope, President & CEO of NanoLumens.
“Our remarkable LED display technology is helping to revolutionize the
entire digital signage industry, and, in the process, we are ushering in an
entirely new era in ‘one to many’ communication that will make the visual
presentation of information and entertainment a more prominent part of our
every day lives. All of us at NanoLumens
are so proud to be buidling this success story here in Georgia.”
The 2013 Georgia
Technology Summit is expected to bring together C-level executives,
entrepreneurs, technology professionals and academia to celebrate and recognize
Georgia’s technology community. In
addition to presentations from some of the top technology influencers in the
nation, the newest member of the Technology Hall of Fame of Georgia will be
inducted.
