Six of the 2012 Deloitte Fast 50 backed by Wellington Financial

When you back great entrepreneurs, our jobs look very easy indeed.

For more than 15 years, the Deloitte Technology Fast 50™ has tracked the successful growth of Canadian-grown global leaders. We are honoured that six of our Fund III portfolio companies ranked in this year’s Fast 50, announced earlier this morning. Wellington is one of the top two corporate sponsors of the Fast 50 program.

Fund III portfolio companies that made the list this year: Toronto-based Real Matters, the parent company of Solidifi, is #3 with revenue growth of 8,961%, BIOX Corp (BX:TSX) of Oakville, Ontario placed 10th, Ottawa-based BTI ranked #28, Vancouver-based Vision Critical is #31, Toronto’s Impact Mobile came in at #37 and Montreal’s Vantrix hit #41. What a fabulous representation from across the country. And a diverse range of sectors, too: software, hardware, telecom, clean tech and mobile.

For five consecutive years, our portfolio companies have made the Fast 50 list. Portfolio companies such as Impact Mobile have made the list for the sixth year in a row, demonstrating that the innovation marketplace continues to excel with our True Growth Capital® funding model.

When our partners succeed like this, we look like geniuses; and for that we are grateful. Congrats to all 50 of this year’s winners.
