Rising Star Awards Methodology Sales
results for Rising Star award winners are based on actual U.S.
revenue over the past year, as reported by industry research
organization The NPD Group using its Distributor Track® service.
Available by subscription, the Distributor Track aggregates actual
distributor sell-through data to enable sharp insight into channel
sales and pricing trends with the ability to drill down into
specific product subcategories, including detailed attributes based

award, vendors are required to have sold corresponding products
through tech distributors for a minimum of one year.
