From those specializing in hybrid cloud-based offerings and Networking as a Service to Secure Access Service Edge and private 5G, here are 10 of the hottest networking startups of 2022.

Perimeter 81
CEO: Amit Bareket
Headquarters: Tel Aviv, Israely
Fast-growing SASE specialist Perimeter 81 was heads-down-focused on cloud-based networking and security, but the company in 2021 entered the SASE arena. Four-year-old Perimeter 81’s offerings can replace legacy and open-source VPN offerings.
The company, which also has offices in New York City and Los Angeles, in 2021 launched a channel partner program for MSPs. In June, Perimeter 81 closed a Series C $100 million funding round led by B Capital at a $1 billion valuation, which reportedly made the company worth about five times more than after its previous funding round in 2020. The company said it has “doubled” its annual recurring revenue.
