365 MAIN WINS
STEVIE™ AWARD AT
2004 AMERICAN BUSINESS AWARDSSM
Bay Area Company Awarded
Prestigious Recognition In New York At Business
Industry’s Own “Oscar” Ceremony
SAN FRANCISCO, CA., MAY
11, 2004 ––
365 Main, the Bay Area’s safest, most secure and reliable
data center took home a Stevie Award for Best New Company
in The 2004 American Business Awards, held in New York last
night. 365 Main is the only state-of-the-art facility in the
Bay Area, a seismic Zone 4 earthquake region, providing trusted,
secure, world-class services in a super-structure building,
built to withstand an earthquake and other disasters of biblical
proportions.
Hailed as “the business world’s
own Oscars” by the New York Post (September 22, 2002),
The American Business Awards are the first national, all-encompassing
business awards program honoring great performances in the
workplace.
Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek
word “crowned,” the awards were presented during
awards ceremonies at the Sheraton New York Hotel & Towers
in New York City. The ceremonies were hosted by CNNfn personalities
Rhonda Schaffler and Ali Velshi, videocast live on the Internet,
and broadcast nationwide on radio.
Chris Dolan, President & CEO
for 365 Main was presented the Stevie before an audience of
500 industry leaders. More than 100 Stevies were presented
in over 40 categories including Best Overall Company, Best
Executive, Best Support Staffer, and Best Corporate Web Site.
More than 800 nominations from companies of all sizes and
in virtually every industry were submitted for consideration.
“Winning the Stevie Award
for “Best New Company” is a true testament to
the hard work and challenges our team has endured over the
past year,” says CEO, Chris Dolan. “I am very
proud to be a recipient of this award within the presence
of other great industry leaders and am grateful for the accomplishments
that the award represents.”
365 Main’s entry for Best
New Company for “Architecture for a New Economy in Technology”
has garnered much attention by members of a Board of Distinguished
Judges & Advisors and other select business leaders, who
scored 365 Main on their outstanding accomplishments and performance
since inception. The Board includes business luminaries such
as Rich Karlgaard, publisher of Forbes, Bruce Nelson, chairman
& CEO of Office Depot, marketing gurus Don Peppers and
Martha Rogers, author and business guru Tom Peters, Anthony
Robbins, Chairman & CEO of The Anthony Robbins Companies,
Drew Schutte, publisher of Wired Magazine, Jeffrey Tarr, president
of Hoover’s Inc., and Donald Trump, chairman, president
and CEO of The Trump Organization. Finalists were selected
by business professionals nationwide during judging earlier
this year.
"With the Stevie Awards, business
people now have the opportunity to win the same sort of positive
attention that up till now only entertainment celebrities
could get," said Michael Gallagher, founder and president
of The Stevie Awards, the organization that runs The American
Business Awards. "Tonight we took a giant leap forward
in recognizing companies and the people who work for them
for their positive efforts, accomplishments, and contributions
to their communities."
