Gambit Communications Wins INTERNATIONAL ENVIRONMENT - GREEN APPLE AWARD, Third Year in a Row

Nashua, NH - August 20, 2010 -- Gambit Communications, a leading provider of network simulation tools, has been notified that it is among the major winners in the International Green Apple Environment Awards. This is the third year in a row that Gambit is honored with this prestigious award and will be presented at the House of Parliament in London later this year.

Gambit has also been invited to join the International Green Heroes, an elite group of environmental achievers who use their experience to help thousands of others - and the environment - around the world. Some of the past winners include Genzyme Ltd, Konica Minolta, Nissan Motor, BBC and many others.

"We are delighted to recognize the environmental endeavors of Gambit Communications again." said Roger Wolens, National Organizer of The Green Organisation. "For them to feature as a major winner for the whole of North America for a third time is a remarkable achievement. We are now inviting them to be one of our International Green Heroes so that we can communicate their environmental expertise around the world and help others to learn from their experience."

"We are honored to be recognized as an environmental company and to receive this prestigious international award three times," said Uwe Zimmermann, President of Gambit Communications. "This award demonstrates our commitment to deliver networking software to help our customers transact business in an environmentally responsible and sustainable manner. Our product, MIMIC Simulator, has been helping companies in saving the energy, decrease the carbon footprint, and dramatically reduce the IT equipment cost and space needed."

The use of MIMIC SNMP Simulator, Wireless Simulator, Cisco Simulator, Cable Modem Simulator and IPMI Simulator decreases the electricity requirements by 90%, reduces the current and future capital expense and removes the worry of recycling old electronic products or properly disposing of electronic waste such as lead and mercury.

The Green Apple Awards began in 1994 and attracted more than 500 nominations this year. They are organized by The Green Organisation, an independent, non-political, non-activist, non-profit environment group dedicated to recognizing, rewarding and promoting environmental best practice around the world.
