Quantifi, a provider of risk, analytics and trading solutions, today announced it has been selected as a winner at the Red Herring’s Top 100 North America awards, a prestigious list honouring the year’s most promising private technology ventures from the North American business region.
Red Herring’s editors were among the first to recognize companies such as Facebook, Google, SalesForce.com, and Spotify, which would change the way we live and work. Thousands of the most interesting and innovative companies have graced the Top 100 list over the years.
Finalists for the 2018 Red Herring 100 North America award were selected based on their technological innovation, management strength, market size, investor record, customer acquisition, and financial health. During the months leading up to the announcement, Red Herring carried out due diligence on over 1200 companies across the technology industry and selected the most innovative companies as finalists.
Quantifi CEO, Rohan Douglas, was then invited to present at the Red Herring event in California. “We are delighted to have been recognised by Red Herring as one of North America’s most innovative and dynamic technology companies,” comments Rohan. “Technology has always been a source of structural change for the capital markets. As a FinTech company, our focus on innovation is key to our success. We partner with both existing and new clients to drive enhancements to our product and continue to upgrade our technology stack to stay current with the huge changes in the FinTech landscape,” continues Rohan.
The finalists were evaluated based on 20 main quantitative and qualitative criterion, which include disruptive impact, market footprint, proof of concept, financial performance, technology innovation, social value, quality of management, execution of strategy, and integration into their respective industries.
