Takes Home Wins in the Company of the Year and the Most Socially Friendly Company Categories


SOFIA, BULGARIA, July 24, 2013 – Telerik won two awards in the 2013 Best in Biz Awards International, taking Silver for Company of the Year and Bronze for Most Socially Friendly Company of the Year. The independent business awards program, judged by members of the press and industry analysts, is open to any company from any industry operating anywhere in the world.

Telerik’s recognition in the Company of the Year category follows numerous successes and achievements recorded in the past year. In 2012, the company increased its headcount by more than 200 employees, celebrated 27 consecutive quarters of revenue growth and added some of the largest global brands to its customer base. Telerik successfully closed three acquisitions and expanded its global presence to three new geographical locations: Gurgaon, India, Hudson, Ohio (USA) and Copenhagen, Denmark. The company grew its product and services portfolio with the acquisitions of Fiddler, NimblePros —the leading service provider of custom software solutions and training—and the Danish company EQATEC, adding their cross-platform application analytics solution, EQATEC Analytics, to Telerik’s growing offering.

In the Most Socially Friendly Company of the Year Category, Telerik was recognized for Telerik Academy, the company’s socially responsible initiative which provides free software education to young people as well as experienced professionals looking to gain new skills for the software industry. Today, Telerik Academy is the number one tech-ed institution for alternative software education in Bulgaria, training 7,500 students within its 35 courses in 13 different majors and over 1,000 videos—all at no cost to them. Plus, over 550,000 viewers have watched the Academy’s online classes.
