Skinit gets recognized as one of America's Most Promising Companies by Forbes Magazine

Dec. 20, 2011 - PRLog -- San Diego, CA – Skinit, the leader in personalization and mass customization of consumer electronic products, has been named one of America's Most Promising Companies by Forbes Magazine. The company ranks amid the top honorees on the magazine's annual list of high-performing organizations, coming in 25th among 100 privately held companies. Forbes judged Skinit on their management team, strong business model, strategic enterprise partners, investment capital and aggressive annual growth results.

"We are honored to be listed by Forbes as one of America’s Most Promising Companies,” says Skinit CEO, Bob King. “Skinit has successfully driven market results for Fortune 500 consumer electronics companies through our patented platform for on-demand mass customization and continue to develop new technologies for permanent decorations on first surfaces through our global supply chain facilities. Our direct-to-consumer web business continues to innovate with new products to personalize and protect.”

With corporate offices in San Diego, California, Skinit first introduced skins as a personalized protective solution for consumer electronic devices.  Now with nearly 200 employees, Skinit’s consumer and B2B business continue to reach new heights.  Skinit.com, their e-Commerce business, was recently awarded Internet Retailer 2012 Hot 100 e-Retailer.

“Sizing up younger, privately held companies is hard: Their fortunes can change very quickly and there’s a dearth of public data,” says Forbes Executive Editor Brett Nelson. “We took a more comprehensive approach to evaluate their health and potential.”

To conduct their search for America’s Most Promising Companies, FORBES teamed up with CB Insights, a Manhattan-based research firm that tracks investment in high-growth private companies. After extensive research, they honed the list down to 100 privately held up-and-comers with compelling business models, strong management teams, notable customers, strategic partners and precious investment capital.

"We are looking forward to continued growth and success in 2012, driven by our management team licensing our personalization technologies and patented platforms to strategic partners across every sector,” says King. “Our consumer goal is to continue to offer the most comprehensive products for consumer electronic devices, while increasing both our revenue growth and market share as the industry leader in personalization, customization and protection.”
