PRESS RELEASE
MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA, Sep 10, 2013 (Marketwired via COMTEX) 

Streaming Video Monetization Platform Is the Only Australian Company to Receive Prestigious Honor

Spondo, a world-leading proprietary content syndication and revenue distribution software platform, today announced it is a winner of Red Herring’s Top 100 Asia award, a prestigious title honoring the year’s most promising private technology ventures from the Asian business region. Spondo was the only company from Australia to receive the award.

Red Herring’s Top 100 Asia 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.

“We are honored to join the accomplished roster of those who have been honored by Red Herring,” said Chris Adams, Spondo CEO. “The fact that we were the only Australian company to be named to this list says a lot about the unique quality of work we are currently doing at Spondo. We look forward to continuing the kind of innovation that helped us receive such a pre-eminent technology accolade.”

Red Herring’s editorial staff evaluated the companies on both quantitative and qualitative criteria, such as financial performance, technology innovation, management quality, strategy, and market penetration. This assessment of potential is complemented by a review of the track record and standing of startups relative to their peers, allowing Red Herring to see past the “buzz” and make the list a valuable instrument of discovery and advocacy for the most promising new business models in Asia.

“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 Asia to the Top 100 Winners. We believe Spondo embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. Spondo should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was the strongest it has ever been.”
