Awarded to companies whom
Deloitte describes as “on the cutting edge and are transforming the way we do
business today,” Technology Fast 500 award winners for 2012 are determined
based on percentage fiscal year revenue growth during the period from 2007 to
2011, with an average growth of 2,774 percent.
Impressively, winning companies from the "Boston" area (including Massachusetts, Southern New Hampshire and Northern Connecticut) constituted 10% of the winners circle, the second largest region, after #1 seeded San Francisco Bay Area.
In addition to a collection of bio-pharma innovators (Amag, AVEO, Vertex, others) a large contingent of MassTLC member companies were among the 45 Massachusetts "Fast" winners including Software-as-a-Service providers HubSpot, Carbonite, LogMeIn, as well as Woburn, MA-based HealthcareSource (the leading provider of talent management solutions for healthcare).
Executives from many of the winning companies are slated to attend the 2012 MassTLC unConference taking place tomorrow, Friday, Nov. 16 in Boston.

While this year's unConference is expected to attract 800+ attendees (more than ever before), registration is still open at this point. As anyone who's ever attended and Tweeted about the @Mass TLC #unConference -- this event is the most innervative gathering of the year for anyone who has any connection to technology in New England. Don't miss it!
Here's a rough "pull" I did of the 45 Massachusetts companies named to the Deloitte 2012 Technology 500. I look forward to congratulating many of the winners in person tomorrow at the 2012 MassTLC unConference, and buying some of my successful friends a celebratory cocktail! :-)
