MONTEREY, CALIF., Dec. 3, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LanguageLine Solutions has been named a Silver winner as Most Innovative Company of the Year in the Best in Biz Awards, the only independent business awards program judged by members of the press and industry analysts.

"In the more than 15 years that I have been covering enterprise and consumer technology, it's been fascinating to watch "old school" tools and technologies evolve for the cloud era," said Mathew Schwartz, InfoRiskToday, returning to the Best in Biz Awards judging panel for the second time. "What struck me most about this year's entries in the Best in Biz Awards were the businesses that — brand names or not, long-established players or even more recently birthed organizations — continue to grapple with how to best reinvent themselves, and by doing so best tap the latest technology possibilities and capabilities for better attracting, retaining and serving their customers."
