AUTONOMY CEO DECLARED ENTREPRENEUR OF THE YEAR 2009
Dr Mike Lynch Tops Management Today's Top 100 Entrepreneurs Ranking
Cambridge, UK and San Francisco, Calif. - January 5, 2009 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise today announced that its founder and CEO, Dr Mike Lynch, has been named Entrepreneur of the Year in Management Today's highly acclaimed Top 100 Entrepreneurs 2009 ranking. Now in its sixth year, the coveted Management Today accolade celebrates entrepreneurial spirit, financial success and business acumen and is bestowed upon the top wealth and job-creating individual in the UK.
"As the new winner, Dr Mike Lynch encapsulates all that is best about British business in world-class performance and domination of a niche market," said Matthew Gwyther, Editor of Management Today. "As one of the world's leading software groups, Autonomy is riding a wave of regulation and is booming despite the credit crunch. Little wonder: it was Autonomy software that uncovered inconsistencies in the dealing records of Jerome Kerviel, the rogue trader at Soc Gen."
Dr Mike Lynch OBE founded Autonomy Corporation plc in 1996, based on his research at Cambridge University. He rapidly established the company's reputation as a world-leading provider of infrastructure software for unstructured information and meaning-based technologies. His revolutionary approach to tackling the explosive growth of unstructured, ‘human-friendly' information has earned him the reputation of a trend-setter in the software industry. Autonomy now has a market cap of $4 billion, is the second largest pure software company in Europe and was named the Best Performing Software Company in Europe. Dr Lynch was named Innovator of the Year at the European Business Leaders Awards (EBLA), beating executives from SAP and Nokia, for pioneering new approaches to enterprise search and information processing technology. He is a fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering, a past winner of the CBI's Entrepreneur of the Year Award, a non-executive director of the BBC and a non-executive director of blinkx plc.
