Celcite Management Solutions (www.celcite.com), the world’s leading provider of network optimization tools for wireless networks, today announced that it had been named by Washington SmartCEO magazine as one of the publication’s fifth annual Future 50 winners, in partnership with Clifton Gunderson LLP.

According to Ernst & Young LLP, the awards program recognizes entrepreneurs who demonstrate extraordinary success in the areas of innovation, financial performance and personal commitment to their businesses and communities.
