Tech Town, NC

I’m a bit late on this one but it only happens once a year, so this list won’t change for another 51 weeks anyway.

These types of “Top Company” lists are tough to pin down in the specifics (who ws at 51?) but in a general way they give a nice overview of what’s happening at a given moment. Judging from this list, there’s a lot of interesting, err, stuff going on in the Southeast. Since we’re focused on the North Carolina (especially RTP) scene, let’s look at the Carolina companies on the list a little more closely.

Before you browse please note that TJ South gets 2 demerits for ranking the companies in alphabetical order rather than influence/growth/coolness/CEO’s hairstyle or anything else remotely interesting.
