TheNextRound Ranked Number 9 in Deloitte's Technology Fast 50 Program for New England
Westborough MA – (BUSINESS WIRE) – September 24, 2007 – TheNextRound, Inc. has been ranked number 9 to Deloitte's prestigious Technology Fast 50 Program for New England, a ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications, and life sciences companies in the area by Deloitte & Touche USA LLP, one of the nation’s leading professional services organizations. Rankings are based on the percentage revenue growth over five years from 2002–2006.
"It is an honor and a privilege to be selected as one of the fastest growing firms in New England. Our revenue growth, market share and this recognition by Deloitte validates our vision of providing an integrated platform for the Alternative Investment community. We could not have achieved this goal without the dedication of TheNextRound team and support from our clients." said Andy Barrett, Vice President, Business Development at TheNextRound.
“TheNextRound has proven to be one of the fast-growth success stories in New England and we applaud their dedication to making their vision a reality” said Steve DiPietro Partner Deloitte LLP. To qualify for the Technology Fast 50, companies must have had operating revenues of at least $50,000 in 2002 and $5,000,000 in 2006, be headquartered in North America, and be a company that owns proprietary technology or proprietary intellectual property that contributes to a significant portion of the company's operating revenues; or devotes a significant proportion of revenues to the research and development of technology. Using other companies' technology or intellectual property in a unique way does not qualify.
