We made the Deloitte Fast 50 list for 2009! This means we are one of the 50 fastest-growing companies in New Zealand. Specifically, we're the 37th fastest-growing company, with 190% revenue growth over the past couple years.
This is a big deal for us because it shows that the things we believe in: open source, excellent web user experience, and a focus on the humans who use web technology, are all qualities that are appreciated by the business community.
Across the 50 companies, the three most popular inspirational companies mentioned by the 50 company leaders were Google, Apple, and Xero. Here at SilverStripe, we get a lot of inspiration from Apple in particular.
One point I find significant is that the entry criteria to make it onto the list, 145% growth, is only 6 percentage points lower than the peak of 151% in 2007. So even in this global recession there's still a lot of Kiwi companies growing fast. That's wonderful news for the New Zealand economy as a whole.
We'll celebrate the recognition a bit before hunkering down again to meet end-of-year deadlines.
Thank you to our clients, the open source community, and all the employees of SilverStripe. Those are the three pillars of making it all happen.
Cheers!
