Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) May 29, 2014 -- Lead411 (http://www.lead411.com) releases its 5th Annual “Hottest Southern California Companies” list for 2014.
Background:
For over 13 years, Lead411’s technology and research team scours the web daily to find information about fast growing companies. Each day they are looking at press releases and news stories like venture financings, company launches, hiring plans, etc. This has given Lead411 insight on the hottest companies in the US, hence the awards.
Industry Recognition:
Over the past five years the awards have received increasingly more recognition and respectability. This is primarily due to the fact that some very successful startups were included in the earlier lists. Previous winners like Yammer, GlassDoor, Hubspot, Eventbrite and Marketo promoted their inclusion on their sites, blogs and social outlets.

First, all companies must be in either the Software, Wireless, Hardware, Internet, or Media industry, a privately held organization, and be within Southern California. From there, each company must meet one or more of the following requirements;
100% increase in revenues over the past 2 years OR $1M+ in funding in the past 2 years.
This particular list originally started with over 1605 companies and it has been narrowed down to the top 64.
