GovDelivery, a leading supplier of digital communications solutions for government, has been recognised as one of the 100 fastest growing companies in an interior city with the 2011 Inner City 100 Award. Nominated by the City of Saint Paul, and selected as one of just 100 winners from thousands of entries nationally, GovDelivery was the only Minnesota business awarded this year.

The Inner City 100 Award, given by the First for a Competitive Inner City (http://www.icic.org), highlights extraordinary companies thriving in America`s inner cities, providing employment opportunities, supporting enhancements to urban living, and encouraging quality in inner-city school districts.

"GovDelivery is an incredible success story having started in a Saint Paul basement in 2000 and now employing nearly 100 people in our city," said Saint Paul Mayor Chris Coleman. "GovDelivery is character of the incredible high-tech momentum in downtown Saint Paul that demonstrates the charm of our vibrant city to companies that need to tap into our great workforce."

GovDelivery was recognized last night at an awards ceremony in Cambridge, Mass. In gain to receiving the prize on behalf of the company, CEO and co-Founder Scott Burns participated in an all-day executive education session at Harvard Business School.

"GovDelivery is unparalleled in that we take the prerogative of providing service to many inner-city governments from slide to slide and we are also set in a vibrant inner city," Burns said.
