DisplayLink Named Emerging Technology Company of the Year at NMI Awards
Posted on: Thursday, 29 November 2007, 12:00 CST
DisplayLink today announced that it has been named Emerging Technology Company of the Year by the National Microelectronics Institute (NMI).
The NMI is a trade association representing the semiconductor industry in the UK and Ireland, and its awards bring together stakeholders from across the global microelectronics industry to acknowledge excellence in design, manufacturing, business and education.
DisplayLink is the first company to bring the full benefits of multiple monitors to a whole range of business, with high performance technology that uses standard network interfaces to make multi-screen computing simple to use, highly interactive and low cost. DisplayLink's products enable a single PC to support up to six monitors through just one USB connection, while maintaining low latency and high-quality images -- factors that have traditionally hindered the uptake of such technology. The company also has partnerships with top tier-one technology brands, including Samsung, LG and Toshiba.
"It is an honor for DisplayLink to be chosen as the Emerging Technology Company of the Year," said Hamid Farzaneh, CEO of DisplayLink. "Our team has worked very hard to make multi-display technology simple and accessible to everyone, and this endorsement backs up our position and capabilities within this growing market."
The company received the award at a ceremony held at the London Hilton Metropole on November 8th, 2007.
