PALO ALTO, CA--(Marketwired - Nov 11, 2014) - TIBCO Software Inc. (NASDAQ: TIBX), a global leader in infrastructure and business intelligence software, today announced Wen Miao, senior vice president of Global Client Technical Services and TIBCO Engage Cloud Business Unit, has been named a 2015 Premier 100 IT Leader by IDG's Computerworld. This year's awards spotlight 100 leaders from both the technology and business sides of companies for their exceptional technology leadership and innovative approaches to business challenges.

Since joining TIBCO 10 years ago, Miao has been an indispensable leader, helping turn TIBCO's vision for real-time marketing and customer engagement into high-performing IT products that deliver significant value to customers. Most recently, Miao has led the creation of TIBCO's brand new marketing platform TIBCO Engage™, a hosted service application that enables marketers to interpret and motivate consumer behavior in real time, through personalized experiences across any channel.

"This recognition from Computerworld validates the painstaking work of everyone at TIBCO on our mission to help businesses realize the advantages of a Fast Data mindset that creates unique customer experiences -- turning their customers into fans."

Computerworld's Premier 100 program was created in 2000 to spotlight individuals who have had a positive impact on their organizations through technology. These are individuals who manage internal IT organizations, mentor and motivate their IT teams and business colleagues, create a positive work environment, envision innovative solutions to business challenges and effectively manage and execute IT strategies. Using Computerworld's IT Leader Index measuring how closely an individual matches its definition of the IT Leader, 100 honorees are selected each year to receive this life-time recognition award.

"The Premier 100 awards program showcases the innovative work of a dedicated group of IT leaders who are using technology to solve business problems in their organizations," said Scot Finnie, editor-in-chief of Computerworld. "Every day, these tech-savvy professionals are positioning their organizations for success by mapping IT projects to strategic business initiatives. They also ensure that their departments are set up to quickly enable new ideas, and they balance the need for free and open access to information with concerns about security and compliance. These 100 men and women are using their vast experience in managing people and projects to stay a step ahead."
