Late last week, M2SYS Technology was singled out for innovation. The company that specializes in scalable biometric identity management solutions for government and business has been selected as one of the top ten finalists in the Technology Association of Georgia (TAG)’s honoring of the state’s most innovative tech companies.
TAG narrowed down its initial list of Georgia’s top 40 most innovative technology companies in the stare, which was culled from over 100 original applicants. The final top ten are set to be recognized at the Georgia Technology Summit being held this week at the Cobb Galleria Centre in Atlanta.
“The 2014 Top 10 finalists are an elite group of innovators who represent the very best of the best from Georgia’s Technology community,” explains Tino Mantella, president and CEO of TAG. “The 2014 Top 10 finalists are shining examples of what makes our State such a hotbed for technology and we applaud them for standing out as leaders in Georgia’s technology community.”
According to TAG, the criteria for selection is heavily weighted on degree of innovation; scope and financial impact of innovation; likelihood of success; and promotion of Georgia’s innovative efforts nationally and internationally.
M2SYS fits the bill. The company claims that it can boast the fingerprint search and deduplication engine in the world. Said engine boasts the ability to match 200 million fingerprints per second in a single commodity server and de-duplicate millions of fingerprints in matter of hours which traditionally required weeks or months.
“It’s an honor to be recognized by TAG as one of the Top 10 most innovative companies in Georgia,” says Mizan Rahman, M2SYS founder and CEO. “We feel fortunate to be entrenched here and fully support the Georgia community, considered one of the most important and influential locales for technology in the entire country. We take great pride in establishing our headquarters in the Atlanta area and it’s humbling to be recognized for our innovative spirit.”
Earlier this year, M2SYS demonstrated its innovative spirit and support of its community with the announcement of KinderGuardian: a program that leverages the company’s RightPatient EHR solution to fight against child abduction through the opt-in biometric enrollment of children.
