blinkx today announced that it has been listed as an ‘IPO of the Year’ finalist in the prestigious Library House UK Technology Innovation and Growth Forum Awards.

The awards recognise organisations that drive the success of the UK’s fastest growing technology companies.

The IPO of the Year category considers the amount of money raised, costs of float, timing, the type of company being floated, the size of company and its sector.

blinkx has been shortlisted alongside five other UK companies, including Expansys and Enfis, and the judging panel includes Stuart Anger, Network Director at UK Trade and Investment, and Andy Morgan, Technology Sector Leader at PWC.

John Owen, CEO of Library House, said, “We are delighted to be recognising such inspiring UK talent in the first awards since our acquisition of the UK Technology Innovation & Growth Forum in August of last year. The awards serve as a powerful reminder of the level of innovation in the UK and the finalists were selected because they are all stand-out examples of the success of the UK’s emerging technology industry.”

Suranga Chandratillake, Chief Executive Officer of blinkx, said, “2007 was an incredibly successful year for the company and we are delighted to have been recognised by Library House for the success of our IPO activity.

This serves as a testament to the hard work of all those involved and signifies our strong position for further growth in 2008.”
