Networkcar Selected as Finalist in AeA High Tech Awards

Networkcar was chosen in the category Computers and Related Products. As the nation's largest high-tech industry association, the AeA recognizes local technology companies for their achievements in technological innovation, civic contributions and industry accomplishments.
