Once again Filipino ingenuity has shone with the recent selection of a Filipino-led company in the US, making it to the finals of the Best of InterOp 2010, a contest that seeks to award the world’s most innovative technologies across nine major categories.

The company Morphlabs Inc., a cloud computing platform enabler for enterprise and service providers, was selected on Tuesday as one of the three finalists for the InterOp Awards’ cloud computing category. It is headquartered in the US, with operations in Japan and the Philippines. Morphlabs’ development center is composed mostly of Filipino software engineers.

“We are very proud to have been named for this recognition” says Winston Damarillo, a Filipino serial entrepreneur and CEO of Morphlabs. “mCloud™ is the result of a seamless collaboration between our US-based R&D and our Philippine-based engineering teams. This proves that impactful innovation can be created anywhere in the world.” 

Damarillo claimed Morphlabs’ flagship product – mCloud Series – provides complete cloud management and provisioning platform that enable enterprises of all sizes to leverage the benefits of both private and public cloud computing.

Only last month, Morphlabs also served as finalist in the ICT International awards for Innovation. This time at the InterOp challenge, it is said to have broken through the global arena with the likes of IBM among its co-finalists.

The cloud computing market, according to forecasts from Gartner Research, will reach approximately $150 billion by 2013.  It also reported that through 2012, IT organizations will invest more in private cloud services than in offerings from public cloud providers.

The panel of judges of the Best of Interop finalists was made up of award-winning editors and analysts from InformationWeek Analytics. The judges selected the products they believe have the greatest potential to impact and advance business technology efficiencies, helping move the industry forward.

Morphlabs is one of the exhibitors at Interop Las Vegas 2010 which starts April 25.  The Best of Interop Award winners will be announced on April 28 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center.
