At a time when the Welsh economy in uncertain because of Brexit, the publication of the 2015 Fast Growth 50 list is again a timely reminder of the talent, perseverance and hard work of those Welsh entrepreneurs creating wealth and employment in all parts of Wales. Since it was first launched in 1999, the Wales Fast Growth 50 has become firmly established as the award that entrepreneurial businesses in Wales aspire to, with a record number of entries for this year’s competition from every sector of the economy.

In Wales, we are often slow to applaud the performance of individual businesses in Wales, but the fifty firms that make up every year’s list are more than worthy of praise. To be described as one of the fifty fastest growing firms in Wales out of a business population of 230,000 is an achievement that should be widely recognised.

But the most important aspect of this project is the impact that the businesses featured on the Fast Growth 50 firms featured have had on Wales. Since 1999, the 551 firms that have appeared on the seventeen lists have created over 34,000 jobs and generate an estimated £18 billion of additional turnover annually, much of which is spent in their local area.

CPR Call Blocker would like to thank all of its customers for making this award possible.
