innovators – Dispatches From The Front

Deloitte announced this month its 50 Fastest Growing Technology Companies, placing a spotlight on a number of innovators.

Now in its 27th year, the organization’s Technology Fast 50™ program recognizes the world-class achievements of leading technology companies—highlighting their commitment to innovation, strong leadership, and rapid revenue growth.

Said a representative from Deloitte, “These remarkable companies have positioned themselves as growth leaders in their respective sectors, paving the way as catalysts and setting new benchmarks for success.

Whether the following products are destined for revolutionary glory or just too far ahead of their time to find a customer base, we salute them.
