Neo4j has been revolutionizing the way organizations do business by providing them with the technology they need to make the most of their connected data.

"In today's ever-connected world, Big Data continues to get bigger, and so do the challenges that come with it," said Emil Eifrem, CEO of Neo Technology. "As a result, graphs are no longer on the cusp of going mainstream; they have been established as the power and basis for the transformation of how organizations do business. We are honored to be recognized for the third time by InfoWorld as a Bossie winner, and look forward to continued innovation and transformation in the years to come."
