“We are extremely proud to be receiving this prize, especially in light of the other selected finalists, who are all major players on the high-tech market. The virtualisation market is the only technology enabling us to reduce the number of servers in a company by increasing their rate of utilisation while cutting management costs and energy consumption. These aspects are vital today for both companies and individuals”, explained Serguei Beloussov.

Created in 1999, SWsoft currently employs 900 people and doubles its turnover every year. The company is active in the United States, in Europe and in Asia.
