ATLANTA, March 30, 2010 — Internap Network Services Corporation (NASDAQ: INAP), a global provider of end-to-end Internet business products and services, today announced that it has been selected as one of the Top 40 Innovative Technology companies in Georgia by the Technology Association of Georgia (TAG), the state’s leading technology organization.
The TAG Top 40 were chosen based on a number of criteria, including: degree of innovation; scope and financial impact of innovation; likelihood of success; and promotion of Georgia’s innovative efforts nationally and internationally. Companies selected to be in the Top 40 participated in a showcase exhibit at the Georgia Technology Summit, attracting 1,000 of the state’s technology leaders.
“Our congratulations to Internap for making this year’s Top 40 list,” said Tino Mantella, president of TAG. “Every year the Top 40 competition is one of the highlights of the Georgia Technology Summit, and this year is no exception.”
