In 2006 and again in 2007, TEXA won the coveted Frost & Sullivan award for innovation, in Nice. The press release stated: "The award recognises TEXA’s superiority over its competitors and its capacity to implement new technologies. The AXONE Palmtop and AXONE Pad, which both use the innovative Google Search Appliance, are concrete examples of this. This recognition is the result of TEXA’s ability to make significant steps forward in product development and to stay well ahead of the competition”. In November 2008, TEXA’s CEO, Bruno Vianello, was named as a finalist in the Innovation section of the prestigious Ernst & Young “Entrepreneur of the Year” awards.
