ed Herring announced its Top 100 award. This award recognizes the leading private com-
panies from North America. Red Herring’s Top 100 North America list has become a mark of distinction for identifying promising new companies and entre- preneurs.
“Choosing the companies with the strongest poten- tial 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 North America to the Top 100 Winners. We believe Modumetal embodies the vision, drive and innova- tion that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. Modumetal should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was very strong.”
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 penetrati- on. This assessment of potential is complemented by a review of the track record and standing of startups
relative to their sector 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 North America.
Modumetal, Inc. of Seattle, USA, is realizing the commercial potential of a unique, patented class of nanolaminated materials. These pioneering materi- als exemplify unprecedented performance for struc- tural, corrosion, and high temperature applications. Modumetal is made by a “green” electrochemical manufacturing approach.
