Recognized for game-changing technology and positive impact on public sector

NEW YORK – October 15, 2009 – Arcadian Networks, the innovative provider of smart grid enabling wireless broadband communication systems to the energy sector, has been chosen by AlwaysOn as one of the OnDC Top 100 Winners.  Inclusion in the OnDC 100 signifies major developments in the creation of new business opportunities that contribute to the renewed and continued prosperity of our country. Arcadian Networks was specially selected by the AlwaysOn editorial team and industry experts spanning the globe based on a set of five criteria: innovation, market potential, commercialization, stakeholder value, and media buzz.

Arcadian Networks and the OnDC Top 100 Companies will be honored at AlwaysOn’s OnDC event on October 19th-21st at the Four Seasons Hotel in Washington DC. This two-and-a-half-day executive event features CEO presentations and high-level debates on sectors most impacted by the federal government including greentech, on-demand computing and IT security, education, and the life sciences.

 “It’s no secret that technology and innovation are vital to bringing our country out of economic recession and transforming important sectors like energy and healthcare,” said Tony Perkins, founder and CEO of AlwaysOn.  “We congratulate the OnDC 100 for their success in introducing new tools, services, and systems to address the nation’s top priorities.”

The OnDC 100 winners were selected from among hundreds of other technology companies nominated by investors, bankers, journalists and industry insiders.  The AlwaysOn editorial team conducted a rigorous three-month selection process to finalize the 2009 list.

As energy experts increasingly cite the importance of smart grid enabling communications to meet our nation’s power infrastructure needs, Arcadian Networks is being recognized by the AlwaysOn panel as an innovator whose “game changing technology” represents a significant and “positive impact on the public sector.” Their plug-and-play solution builds the secure, real-time, two-way communications that form the basis for all smart grid communications.
