The Pulver 100 features companies that have substantial real-world deployments of their products and services, as well as enjoy significant growth rates. Firms on the list focus more on a networking-industry model espousing open interfaces, connectivity decoupled from services, and software decoupled from hardware. A committee based in Melville, New York selects wining companies based upon the weighting of several factors, including "how cool their products/services are."
