Funnelback was one of only 25 companies in Australia and New Zealand to be awarded MIS Rising Star status.
MIS magazine said these companies show signs of seriously influencing the way technology is bought or deployed. These companies can expect rapid growth, to make acquisitions, be acquired or otherwise significantly increase their presence in the market place over the next 12 months. This is an early warning to take note of companies that are already impressing savvy CIOs.
Brett Matson, CEO of Funnelback says, It is an honour to be recognised by so many leaders in the ICT industry. This recognition belongs to the great work and dedication of Funnelback staff and our fantastic customers.
Companies were chosen for awards based on the nominations by a panel of judges composed of analysts and CIOs from across the region. Simon Smith, CIO of News Digital Careers (CareerOne) and Tom Worthington, Fellow, Australian National University were two of the judges on the award Panel.
