Xelerated Nominated to Prestigious Award – Stora Teknikpriset

The Swedish technical paper, Ny Teknik, nominated three finalists to Stora Teknikpriset – Xelerated, Ericsson and SAAB (the defense company). In preparation for the award ceremony there were both articles written and videos taken (in Swedish only) to explain and give some good background to three leading innovations from Sweden.

As always, when competing in the technology business it is hard to rank one  innovation in a specific field to another which applies to a different segment.  At the end of the day it will be the commercial success that will be the ultimate referee. Still, it is a great honor to be nominated to such a prestigious award as Stora Teknikpriset.  It serves as a strong testimony to the innovative technology we provide here at Xelerated, while acknowledging the team’s hard work and dedication of designing a unique packet processing architecture and bringing it to commercial success.

Xelerated didn’t get the gold medal this time around. Instead, I’d like to take the opportunity to congratulate Ericsson for winning the award for their development of “Turbo 3G,” enabling mobile broadband across the world.
