The 2008 M2M 100 is a list of the most important and influential
machine-to-machine technology providers as determined by the editors of
M2M magazine and its editorial advisory board. First published in 2005, when Crossbow was first listed, the M2M 100 list is widely regarded as the definitive record of companies representing the fast emerging machine-to-machine technology market.
The list is compiled from over 300 companies and the Top 100 are selected after extensive research and analysis that takes into consideration the strength of their business model, product portfolio, growth potential, customer references, market leadership and a variety of other factors. It is designed to provide a snapshot of the market as it exists today and the companies with the greatest impact on its direction. Many companies were considered for this year's directory, but only the M2M 100 passed the rigorous selection process. The list is published annually.
Crossbow has been listed in M2M's Top 100 since the list's conception in 2005. In all 4 years, Crossbow has maintained its position as the market leader in the wireless sensor network space.
