Nashua, NH - November 10, 2014 -- Gambit Communications, a leading provider of network simulation tools, has received the prestigious International Green Apple Environment Award in The Green Organisation's international campaign to find the world's greenest companies. The Award was in recognition of Gambit's environmentally friendly product - MIMIC NetFlow Simulator, which simulates thousands of networking and storage devices in one machine.

Gambit competed against more than 500 other nominations. It was presented with the Green Apple Award at a glittering presentation ceremony in the Houses of Parliament on November 10, 2014. This is the sixth time that Gambit was honored with the award. Other winners include J AND J, Switzerland, KOREA ENVIRONMENT CORPORATION, Marks & Spencer etc.

As a result of this success Gambit is invited to have its winning paper published in The Green Book, the leading international work of reference on environmental best practice, so that others around the world can follow its example and learn from the experience.

Gambit will also be considered to represent the USA in the European Business Awards for the Environment.

The Green Apple Awards are presented annually in recognition of companies, councils and communities carrying out projects that are environmentally friendly. Judges for the Green Apple Awards are drawn from the Environment Agency, the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health, the Chartered Institution for Wastes Management and other independent bodies.

"We are very proud to represent USA in the European competition and win again." said Uwe Zimmermann, president of Gambit Communications. "We are committed to the Green Organisation's environmental campaign of making the world greener by creating networking software in an environmentally responsible and sustainable manner. Our product, MIMIC Simulator, has been helping enterprises and networking vendors around the world decrease the carbon footprint, saving energy, and dramatically reduce the lab equipment along with the space needed. We are thrilled to have received the prestigious Green Apple Award in recognition of our efforts and it is wonderful to have this acknowledgment from The Green Organisation."

The use of MIMIC Simulator decreases the electricity requirements by 90 percent, 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.
