SAN FRANCISCO, November 18, 2020 – IGEL, provider of the next-gen edge OS for cloud workspaces, today announced it ranked #183 on Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500™, a ranking of the 500 fastest-growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences and energy tech companies in North America. Making its debut on the list, IGEL reported three-year revenue growth of 661%.
“IGEL’s growth trajectory can be attributed to its pivot from a hardware-centric to a software-first company in 2016,” said Jed Ayres, CEO, IGEL. “Our innovation and industry-leading solutions are enabling the simple, smart and secure delivery of cloud workspaces for businesses of all sizes across many vertical markets – from healthcare to financial services to education and government agencies. We are grateful to our employees, partners and customers who share our vision, and have supported IGEL’s mission to improve the security, productivity and efficiency of end-user computing around the globe.”
IGEL is aligned with the world’s most prominent cloud providers including Citrix, Microsoft and VMware, and is transforming end user computing by simplifying and securing the cloud-delivery of all needed applications and resources. As a 100% channel-driven company, IGEL also has alliances with a broad international network of channel partners, including solution providers, resellers and distributors, and provides these channel partners with the products and tools they need to grow their business more quickly and profitably.
“For more than 25 years, we’ve been honoring companies that define the cutting edge and this year’s Technology Fast 500 list is proof positive that technology — from software and digital media platforms, to biotech — truly does permeate so many facets of our lives,” said Paul Silverglate, vice chairman, Deloitte LLP and U.S. technology sector leader. “We congratulate this year’s winners, especially during a time when innovation is needed more than ever to address the monumental challenges posed by the pandemic.”
“Each year the Technology Fast 500 listing validates how important technology innovation is to our daily lives. It was interesting to see this year that while software companies continued to dominate, biotech companies rose to the top of the winners list for the first time, demonstrating that new categories of innovation are accelerating in the pursuit of making life easier, safer and more productive,” said Mohana Dissanayake, partner, Deloitte & Touche LLP, and industry leader for technology, media and telecommunications, within Deloitte’s audit and assurance practice. “We extend sincere congratulations to these well-deserved winners — who all embody a spirit of curiosity, and a never-ending commitment to making technology advancements possible.”
Overall, 2020 Technology Fast 500™ companies achieved revenue growth ranging from 175% to 106,508% from 2016 to 2019, with median growth of 450%.
