Pleasanton, CA (USA), November 2011 - Toolwire, a provider of experiential-learning technologies, has announced that it has been named a finalist for the Red Herring Global 100, a prestigious list honoring the world's most promising private information-technology companies.
Toolwire now delivers experiential-learning solutions to over 133 countries. The company's biggest achievement in the past year has been its large-scale development and deployment of Toolwire Learnscapes, which have been used by over 500,000 students and employees across multiple institutions and subject disciplines in 71 countries. In total, students will log over 100 million minutes of usage on Learnscapes in 2011.
