These Are The 25 Fastest Growing Public Tech Companies

This article is more than 8 years old.

Wall Street isn't enamored with high growth tech startups the way it used to.

But despite taking a beating in the stock market and a stale IPO pipeline, some public technology companies are still putting up tremendous numbers. That's what FORBES' annual Fast Tech 25 list is all about: finding the firms with superior growth (both past and projected), along with a solid earnings-quality score from Value Line.

The final list is ranked by trailing three years of revenue growth, and online food ordering marketplace GrubHub finished on top with a 66% average. GrubHub is attempting to maintain that strong performance by doing something new: investing heavily in providing delivery for the restaurants on its network.

15 companies on the Fast Tech 25 had less than $1 billion in sales over the last year, but there were some giants with stellar growth too. Facebook placed third with a 53% average sales growth rate, and Amazon and Alphabet also made the cut. Their feat is perhaps most impressive, considering the bases from which they have grown.
