Fast Growth 2014: The Top 25
Growing Reigns
The IT industry is in transition to cloud computing. The channel is in transition to new business models. Throw in an inconsistent economic recovery, and that adds up to some pretty uncertain times for solution providers.
Sounds like a good time for growth.
Successful solution providers know that times of change create opportunities for developing new services, selling new products, and entering new markets. The solution providers on this year's Fast Growth 150 list are doing just that, recording total revenue of $7.2 billion in 2013 and have an average two-year growth rate of 102.6 percent.
Here we present the top 25 on the Fast Growth 2014. They range from No. 25 Aldridge and its two-year growth rate of 153 percent, to Cumulus Global and its astounding two-year growth rate of 689 percent. The list in its entirety can be purchased for off-line use by contacting Laurie Condon (East Coast), or Nora Uriarte (West Coast).
