Custom panels specialist Vision Critical leapt to fifth from fifteenth place this year. CEO Angus Reid credits the revenue growth to 'the collaboration of research and technology experts to create a world leading online research platform'.
To qualify for the Deloitte Technology Fast 50 ranking, companies must have been in business for at least five years, have revenues of at least $5 million, own proprietary technology, be headquartered in and conduct research and development activities in North America.
