When and why did Deloitte create a Technology Fast 50?
The Central European Technology Fast 50 program is part of a global effort led by Deloitte to identify the leading growth and technology companies all over the world. It grew out of a program initiated in the United States in 1995. In the United States and more recently in Europe, the Fast 50 program has expanded into the Fast 500 and is a recognized benchmark of success in the technology industry. In Central Europe, Deloitte launched its first Technology Fast 50 company ranking in 2000. Furthermore, since award winners likely will continue to grow at a rapid pace and be the source of future technological advances, this Deloitte program recognizes, rewards and raises the profile of the fastest-growing firms not only in Central Europe, but within European context where technology chief executives operate.
