“We are very pleased to have placed in the top ten in the PROFIT 100 rankings for the second year in a row,” said Fabio M. Banducci, PEER 1’s president.  “A tremendous amount of hard work has gone into building this company into what it is today. We expect to continue to thrive as we sharpen our focus on enabling our customers to concentrate their attention on the possibilities of the Internet, not the complexities.”
