At the 2013 Georgia Technology Summit yesterday, Internap was honored as one of the Top 40 Innovative Technology Companies in Georgia. The awards, presented by the Technology Association of Georgia (TAG), recognize “an elite group of innovators who represent the very best of Georgia’s Technology community.”
The hundreds of technology leaders in attendance at the event also represent something else – they reflect larger trends taking place in the world of business today. A quick glance at the full list of winners shows the increasing demand for cloud, mobile and social technologies. Healthcare, finance, risk management, green energy and supply chain management are also well-represented on this list.
Emerging Trends
If these are the areas where innovation is taking place, what conclusions can we draw? The list shows an increasing demand for cloud services, mobile and social capabilities. This suggests that businesses across a variety of verticals are looking to technology for more cost-effective and efficient ways to work, and Georgia companies are rising to the challenge.
At Internap, our cloud hosting and colocation services offer ways to decrease operating costs by offering efficient alternatives to traditional IT Infrastructure. Our Atlanta data center was recently awarded Green Globes certification, and our solutions allow organizations to reduce capital expenses while increasing business agility.
