The Forbes Cloud 100 judge panel weighed the factors to select, score and rank the winners. With that data, the judge panel, which includes major public cloud company CEOs, was then responsible for selecting and ranking the top 100 companies globally.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe private cloud ecosystem continues to mature in light of rapid digital transformations, making the competition to land one of the coveted spots on the Cloud 100 list steeper than ever,\u201d said Byron Deeter, a top cloud investor, and partner at Bessemer Venture Partners. \u201cPrivate cloud valuations are getting bigger as the market\u2019s appetite for cloud continues to grow. Over the past five years, the average Cloud 100 valuation has grown by a tremendous 2.5x, from $1 billion in 2016 to $2.7 billion in 2020. In fact, our 2020 Cloud 100 includes over 87 private cloud unicorns! These founders represent the absolute best in cloud computing today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor five years now, we have ranked the best and brightest emerging companies in the cloud sector,\u201d said Alex Konrad, Forbes editor of The Cloud 100. \u201cWith so many businesses growing fast in the cloud, from data infrastructure to marketing, it\u2019s harder than ever to make the Cloud 100 list \u2013but with more elite company if you do.
