"It is a great opportunity to gain the recognition they deserve for their growth, leadership and overall commitment to our region."
Judging was based on the company's commitment to the growth or betterment of the Long Island community, positive employer/employee relations, revenue and profitability trends, and future company vision.

"As we execute new security for solutions for a varied customer base, the can- do culture and engineering know-how will empower the continued diversification of our product offerings."
"Our association with Stony Brook University and the Center of Excellence in Wireless and Information Technologies (CEWIT) has already added significant value."
APDN will be presented with the Business Achievement Award at HIA's September 12, 2006 Gala Luncheon where 350-400 business professionals and political dignitaries will also hear a keynote presentation officiated by Steve Levy, Suffolk County Executive.
Winning companies will also have an opportunity to display their products, services and technologies and to speak about their company in the presence of government dignitaries and Long Island business leaders.
"Long Island firms face many obstacles," said Ann-Marie Scheidt, Co Chair of HIA's Business Development Committee.
"But they've proven over and over that they have the talent and resourcefulness to overcome those obstacles and forge ahead."
"This is the HIA's way of saying 'thank you' to companies, like Applied DNA Sciences, that have successfully met competitive challenges, have had a significant community impact, and have made commitments to growth on Long Island."
