The pulver 100 of 2004
The 2004 “pulver 100” identifies who we at pulver.com believe to be the top privately held growth companies in the worldwide communications sector.
2004 has been the year of VoIP – and the companies named in the pulver 100 have made significant contributions, by helping to spread IP communications worldwide with little or no dependence on traditional telephone network, equipment, or service providers. This year’s pulver 100 represents the future of the communications ecosystem, and we’re proud to honor them.
Each company named to the pulver 100 will be honored during the opening reception at Fall VON 2004.
First introduced in 2002, the pulver 100 features private companies in the communications sector that have substantial real-world deployments and enjoy significant growth rates. The value chain characterized by the pulver 100 differs from the vertically integrated telecom model of the last century, focusing more on a networking-industry model that espouses open interfaces, connectivity decoupled from services, and software decoupled from hardware.
The companies named to the 2004 pulver 100 are: Access Line, Acme Packet, Aculab, Adax, Amtelco, Atreus Systems, Bay Packets, BlueSlice, Bridgeport Networks, Brix Networks, Broadsoft, Broadvoice, CallWave, Centile, Cicero Networks, Cinergy Communications, CITEL Technologies, Commetrex, Convedia, Diamondware, Digilinea, Digium, EADS Telecom, Ecuity Advanced Communications, eStara, Excel Switching, GrandStream, Hexago, Hotsip, i3Micro, Inclarity, Ingate, International Systems Research, Intertex, Intoto, IP Unity, Iptel.org, IPeria, IVR Technologies, Jasomi Networks, jNETx, Kagoor, locustworld, LongBoard, M5Networks, MailVision, Mediatrix, Mera Systems, Meru Networks, Metaswitch, Natural Convergence, Netcentrex, Netintact, Netrake, Neustar, NexTone Communications, Nimcat Networks, One Connect, OnRelay, Pactolus, PalTalk, Paradial, Peerio (Popular Telephony), Peoplecall, Personeta, Pingtel, PointOne, Psytechnics, Quintum Technlogies, ring2, Sansay, SentitO, SIPQuest, Skype, SkyWave, Strix Systems, Surf Communications, SWYX, Sylantro, Telchemy, TeleGea, Telio, Tellme Networks, ThinkEngine Networks, Trinity Convergence, Ubiquity Software, Unimax, VegaStream, Versatel Networks, VidiTel, Vocera, VoicePulse, VoIP Americas, Volo Communications, Vonage, Voxpath Networks, WebCall World, Webmessenger, Wildpackets, Zultys.
