The Nashville Business Journal Award Identifies and Recognizes
The Best Companies in Middle Tennessee

Nashville, TN., July 31, 2008 – PureSafety, the leading provider of online safety training and risk management software solutions, was recently awarded Nashville Business Journal’s Best in Business Award in the 101-500 employee category. The Best in Business Awards is an annual recognition program sponsored by the Nashville Business Journal to celebrate entrepreneurship and the best companies in Middle Tennessee. 

Best in Business Award finalists are identified through a nomination process and are judged by an independent panel of business experts.  Judging is based on numerous criteria, including history, revenue growth, marketing strategy, key accomplishments and community involvement just to name a few. 
 
“Other cities around the country often get more press at a national level for having high levels of entrepreneurial activities,” said Turney Stevens, Dean of the Lipscomb University College of Business and one of this year’s judges.  “My observation, after almost four decades in the Nashville business community, is that no other city can boast the unique combination of brilliant people, great ideas, fertile sources of capital, and inherent hard-work ethic that makes our young companies here become such successes so often.”

Born out of a workplace fatality in 1998, PureSafety has realized nearly 50% average annual revenue growth, shown 90%+ customer retention rates, and created an industry-leading position within the training, safety and risk management software market.  "We are excited and proud to be recognized by the Nashville Business Journal as a Best in Business Award winner,” said Bill Grana, PureSafety’s President and CEO.  “This award is a true testament to our people and the core values that embody every aspect of our business."

PureSafety received recognition as a Best in Business Award winner at a luncheon honoring the finalists and winners on Friday, July 25th, 2008. The company will also be featured in a special insert published by the Nashville Business Journal on August 1st, 2008.
