Spidercloud Wireless Receives Multiple Industry Recognitions for Scalable Small Cell System Innovation

SpiderCloud Wireless Wins Awards and is Nominated for Six Awards in June

San Jose, California, June 5, 2014 – SpiderCloud Wireless, Inc., the leading provider of scalable small cell Enterprise Radio Access Network (E-RAN) systems, today announced that it is honored by the industry recognition it has received from its peers and industry insiders in recent months, and thankful for the awards received for small cell innovation.

So far this year, the company has received two awards, one notable nomination from GSMA, and is shortlisted for six awards in June at three upcoming conferences, including a “Private Company of the Year” nomination from LightReading.

“We are humbled by the recognition from the industry and our peers,” said Michael Gallagher, CEO of SpiderCloud Wireless. “Our momentum is a testament to our relentless engineers and field teams who do what it takes to help our customers and partners succeed.”

In February, SpiderCloud Wireless was named one of just five nominees in GSMA’s 19th Annual Global Mobile Awards in the category “Best Mobile Technology Breakthrough” for the industry’s first dual band 3G/LTE Radio Node, as part of its scalable small cell system.

In May, SpiderCloud and Vodafone UK won the “2014 Global Telecoms Business Innovation Award” for “Wireless Network Infrastructure Innovation” for Vodafone’s Sure Signal Premium, a reliable indoor mobile coverage and capacity service using SpiderCloud Wireless’ scalable small cell system connected to NEC’s security gateways in Vodafone’s network.

In May, Red Herring also named SpiderCloud Wireless a Top 100 Award Winner. “In 2014, selecting the top 100 achievers was by no means a small feat,” said Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring. “In fact, we had the toughest time in years because so many entrepreneurs had crossed significant milestones so early. But after much thought, rigorous contemplation and discussion, we narrowed our list down from hundreds of candidates from across North America to the top 100 winners. We believe SpiderCloud Wireless embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. SpiderCloud Wireless should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was very strong.”
